Just as point of comparison, Acrobat Pro 11 on OS X is 893MB for the actual application (the .app) which contains a bunch of resources; but there are other resources scattered elsewhere not accounted for. There are 500MB of built-in plugins ranging from Accessibility to HTML2PDF to Preflight to TouchUp. I think if you want the functionality, any app is just necessarily going to end up being really big. LibreOffice on Linux is not some Tonka Toy app (although Tonka Toys are badass, they're obviously not the Real Deal) either, and it has a commensurate size: # dnf install libreoffice Install 85 Packages Total download size: 126 M Installed size: 393 M -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
