diffpdf classification, Office or Utilities or both ?

This isn't a big deal but when I was looking for diffpdf recently I looked under Office first and after a bit of head scratching found it under Utilities / File Comparison.

Where do other people think it should reside? I can see an argument for both. Is it possible for an app to appear in more than one category?

One Category

It only really fits under one category. And while a PDF viewer or editor would be office, a file differencing tool is more of a utility.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

We'll have to agree to

We'll have to agree to disagree. If I am in my Office and have two pdf files and want to know if they are the same or not that is an Office job.

More biscuits.

you can change the category

You can change a program's category so it will be in the right one for you.

The way I do it is find the program in the PortableApps menu, right click on it, go to Category and select the one you want it to appear in (and you can even make your own categories)

I am using 12.0 Beta 2 and for the life of me I can't remember if it is the same for earlier versions of PortableApps

Same

It's the same in 11.x
