    Yes it will consider it duplicate. That's why some of my PDFs are in supplemental hell.

    You can make the link to your pdf out of reach of SEs. This way there will be no duplicate content trigger for Google.

    other question: is the content of a pdf considered with the same weight (keyword wise) of html content?
