ShrinkIt... is your application larger than necessary because of needless data stored in image resources?
Being a responsible and forward-thinking developer, you're probably good and ready for the day Mac OS X supports resolution independence so you use multilayer TIFFs and PDFs instead of flat bitmap images whenever possible.
ShrinkIt is a simple, small, Panic-internal tool (for Mac OS X Snow Leopard) that will automate the process of stripping needless metadata from PDFs by re-saving them using Apple's PDF processor. We believe this is 100% lossless - it's not compressing anything, just removing cruft. Simply drop a bunch of files (not folders) onto it - such as the contents of your app's Resources folder - to have it find the PDFs and do its magic. The original files will be renamed with the prefix "_org_" for safety, but you'll likely want to delete 'em. That's it!
