File size difference between path Finder and Dropbox.

[Jean-Charles M.1]

Hello,

I see significant file size differences between pathfinder and dropbox, why?
Example : a .pptx file: on pathfinder's get info: 9.1MB, on dropbox 8.64MB

thank you

Yes I am sure that both values are indeed express in MB. MB: " a unit of computer memory or data storage capacity equal to 1,048,576 (220) bytes"

@Jean-Charles M.1, Just for your info: Apple usually uses SI style units in its products, while Dropbox uses binary style units! So, keeping in mind your observations, don't be so sure - better check it; don't just assume something (what you do as seems). Follow the Hannah's advice to check it and make it sure.

Does your Get Info panel, posted before, confirm your supposion? 🙂 I assume you can check if the units there match what you said (elementary arithmetic). Do they?
