“Is your application larger than necessary because of needless data stored in image resources? What is making your PDFs four times the size they ought to be?
ShrinkIt is a simple, small Panic internal tool that will automate the process of stripping needless metadata from PDFs by re-saving them using Apple’s PDF processor. Just drop a bunch of files (not folders) onto it — such as the contents of your app’s Resources folder — It’ll find the PDFs and do its magic on them. The original files will be renamed with the prefix “_org_” for safety, but you’ll likely want to delete those. That’s it!”
An app meant for developers, but I’m curious to see how much space I can free from my /Applications folders.
