File size / sync question

Hi all,

I was about to perform a sync to a local folder mirrored to Google Drive.
The last synced file from 2023-09-01 has a size of 5228 kB and the more recent one from today 3633 kB. The syncing program warned during analysis. No radical changes (that I am aware of) in the recent file, just small adjustments of layout and part work.

Should I be worried about this or is this normal? I have compared the files and I cannot see any difference.

The difference is almost certainly accounted for by a different layout being active when you most recently saved the project, resulting in a different layout being used for the thumbnail preview PDF and PNG. This can have a significant impact on the overall project file size.

Ah ok, thanks. Sigh of relief.
