Compressing a folder with 25 PICT files, StuffIt Deluxe 5.0 did create a smaller archive≡00K versus Aladdin DropStuff 4.5’s 116K. What the update won’t address is StuffIt Deluxe 5.0’s new file format: archives you create with this version can’t be opened with an older version of StuffIt Deluxe or StuffIt Expander.Īladdin claims that StuffIt Deluxe 5.0 increases compression by about 20 percent over previous versions, but that number depends on the files being compressed. Aladdin claims that these kinks will be worked out by the time you read this.
