Why do you want to do that? If your goal is to convert your RAW files into DNG without any processing, then dngconverter from Kipi-plugins does this very well (and the adobe DNG converter can be used for free even though it's not "free software"). If your goal is to save to a lossless format after processing, then DNG does not seem to be a good idea to me. For example, DNG usually stores the pixels in bayer format, and you clearly don't want to re-mosaic your image at the end of the pipeline. By the end of darktable's pipeline, a target color profile is applied, and it's stored in the generated image file. I'm not sure DNG would do a good job at this. OTOH, there are lossless-compression and high bit depth images format like 16 bits PNG or TIFF and OpenEXR. I don't think DNG would have any benefit over these for processed images. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ New Year.
