Thanks Musefan. Now it's going to be bugging me all day (I don't have any stockpiled!)

 I know that feeling all too well

That's the size of Adobe Acrobat. An app that displays PDF files.
156 million bytes.
To contrast, Foxit Reader is 3.4 MB.
My head asplode.

I don't use Foxit,
has it all the add-ins to sign pdfs, comment, mark and so on?

You can add comments in the free version, but if you want full editing then you need to pay. However, it is still the best basic reader.

I got rid of FoxIt when I realized it had a Facebook plugin.

I honestly never looked into the "why".
I always tell others - the day I'm required to write code - any code - that does anything with Facebook is the day I retire.

I have realized one thing:
Big companies produce bloated code which need large teams to maintain. Small companies produce just enough code for the apps to work nicely.
|

True and yet big companies are richer than smaller companies partly because they tailor to the edges.

I use Corel PDF Fusion (because it came free with one or more versions of Paintshop Pro and it allows PDF editing as well) and that's "only" 134MB! Bear in mind that's 134MB of Corel product: and their company motto is "Bloat and add bugs".

I have both Adobe Acrobat and Moon+ Reader, and I prefer Moon+ reader over adobe acrobat for mobile reading.

Indeed. A while ago someone here sneered at me because he heard that I still write assembly programs on a 40 year old 8 bit computer and actually get something working in just 4k RAM. Even an icon as resource is far bigger today.

adobe acrobat has additional functionality like support for digital ceritifcates , cloud apis , plugins supporting adobe acrobat pro like forms etc... hence the size... normally meant for enterprise or corp environments....who use adobe..they other readers don't have to support all this...

Surely you mean 163.5 million bytes? Or are you using that simpleton MB for Apple users?

Rob Philpott.

Well, that depends on whether you accept the authority of a group who wish to redefine the meaning of an ubiquitous term stretching long into the past.
I'll accept there's two mainstream meanings of MB out there today, but in my very humble opinion one is correct, and one is meddling. 
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

I can never remember which MB is which.
It's a good thing it's not money; I'd get ripped off something awful.

Never heard of Foxit, but just downloaded free version (FoxitReader94) and the download is 74Mb... though it does seem to do a lot more than just display PDFs... good find, thank you!
|
|
|
|
|
I still use version 3.1: 9MB on disk and 8MB in memory.
|
|
|
|

I'm using the "portable" version (which goes for many apps), and Foxit contains a "facebook" plugin of 4 Mb after install. It runs happily without it.
See \App\Foxit Reader\plugins.
