The AGG renderer is ~600KB (64-bit); the PDFium renderer is ~15MB (64-bit). Apart from this huge size difference, what difference is there between the two?

Hi,

i've googled the descriptions for you.
If you've read this ... perhaps you know the differences ;-)
It seems to me that PDFium is supported by Foxit - due to this and the future i would lead my view more to PDFium...

PDFium:
