Hello.

The KDE site has a size restriction of 4MB for attachments. So I managed 
to select a DNG file that was small. But lots of my DNG files are marked 
as TIFF, even though they have a size of about 10 MB.

I did find some DNG files that were correctly labelled as DNG files by 
DigiKam. Typically, they are very large, about 20 MB.

Small DNG files can arise in Adobe Lightroom 5 in two ways:

1) If you import a JPG and then convert it to a DNG, the result will 
typically be small, little bigger than the original JPG. It has 
advantages to store all files as DNG, even if they originate as JPG.

2) In Lightroom, you can convert all files to DNG using "Lossy 
compression". The size is thereby reduced from typically 20-25 MB to 
6-10 MB. On a screen, you lose almost no quality, for this would be 
visible (at most) in a large print.

Would it help if I bundled some DNG photo files, some falsely marked as 
TIFF, some correctly marked as DNG? But the package would be very large, 
so pse tell me how.

Best regards
