What are CMaps? -- hundreds of them -- starting with

%!PS-Adobe-3.0 Resource-CMap

Four different folders full of them, in paths with

Application Support >> Adobe

as part of each path.

Can I ditch 'em? Or some of 'em?

Font character maps used internally by Adobe software.

Probably not without doing some harm to whatever Adobe software uses
them.

Why would you bother?

Why are you snooping around in the Application Support folder looking
for random things to delete, anyway?
