Why does DNG converter turn 11 MB files to 40 MB files?

My DNG converter 6.3 makes DNG files of about 40-41 MB out of the 11-12 MB RW2 raw files from my Panasonic Lumix GF1. Why? It does not increase the size of the raw files from my Canon G11, rather the opposite. How can I cure this problem? Please help!

I am having the identical problem while setting my DNG converter to "4.1 or Later."
Basically, can someone describe in lay terms what the "lens correction" and "op codes" issues mean. Also, I assume I cannot choose "5.4 or later" in the DNG Converter when using version CS3 of Photoshop because that is where the compatibility becomes a problem. Is that correct?
Can one simply upgrade the version of Camera Raw without upgrading Photoshop? Also, if I did upgrade Photoshop, would I be able to go back to those DNGs that are in the 40mb range, convert them to DNG again, and get a new DNG file that is more in the range of 10-12mb? Or am I now stuck with those 40mb DNGs? (I did not choose the "embed original RAW file" option.)
Thanks

Why does DNG Converter insist on lossy conversion?

I use DNG Converter to convert RW2 files to DNG so I can work on them in various PP programs.
No matter whether or not I have the "lossy" box checked, DNG Converter insists on doing a lossy conversion.
How can I stop this?
Sample images:
Original RW2 image, with histogram:
DNG image - note loss shown on histogram. There is also posterized banding, although in the small image allowed on this site it is very hard to see.

Thank you for pointing out the problem. Preview from DNG Converter is JPEG.
==================================
UPDATE:
My previous comment, above, is irrelevant.
The preview is JPEG, but I am working with the DNG file. So my original question remains unanswered.
I have found the same issue with RW2 files. I will investigate settings for FastStone Image Viewer (the program I am using for editing). So far I find no options to change treatment of DNG or RW2.

Why does aperture convert my raw files to jpegs when I import them from iPhoto?

Why does aperture convert my raw files to jpegs when I import them from iPhoto?

It doesn't.
When you import Raw to iPhoto the app makes a jpeg preview of the Raw automatically. When you import from iPhoto then Aperture brings over both versions.

Can anybody say why In the layer menu the background color is white when opening a layer mask, and why does it automatically turns black by simply opening the layer mask properties menu? The vector mask is white anyway.

That field is not for attempting to fit your entire question in there.
Please keep this in mind next time you post. Thank you.
A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

Why does my screen turn black when I play iTunes while working on iPhoto?

Why does my screen turn black when I play ITunes while working on iPhoto? I can't click off of the screen but get a message that reads Shut down computer by pressing button in back then turn computer back on by pushing button in back. That's followed by Chinese letters (which I cannot read). I have had other problems when playing iTunes (actually, a radio station on the Internet) while working on iPhoto. Before, I got a window that would pop up and tell me I had no disk space available, that I would have to quit applications that were open. Not many were open.
It would be nice if I could solve this problem once and for all.
Thanks in advance for all the suggestions. I truly appreciate your help.

Why does my screen turn blue and freeze every time i try to plug in my 'mini display to hdmi' cable into my thunderbolt port in order to use an external monitor?

why does my screen turn blue and freeze every time i try to plug in my 'mini display to hdmi' cable into my thunderbolt port in order to use an external monitor? it only works if i turn the computer on with it already plugged in.

Do you have gfxCardStatus installed? Is your monitor set to "Integrated" or "Discrete". You want it set to Discrete to drive the external HDMI display.
Try resetting the PRAM and SMC
<About NVRAM and PRAM>
<Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)>
Are you sure you have a good miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable?
Do you have another HDMI display you can test against (your neighbor's HDMI capable TV).
Do you have friend that can test the cable using their Mac and maybe their TV or a monitor that has HDMI input.

How well does keynote convert MS office powerpoint files?

How well does keynote convert MS office powerpoint files? A colleague prepares Powepoinr presentations and if they send them to me will I be able to edit the content and send it back to them?

There are numerous threads about this question, you might profit from looking at some of them.
Preategui, KN does open PP docs, unless something's wrong. If you could describe, as exactly as possible, what you do, and what happens, we can probably sort this out.
That said, back to the OP: converting from PP to KN or vice-versa is easy enough, but they don't always translate exactly - remember, they're different programs, differently written, with different capabilities. The simpler the presentation, the fewer the differences will be; the more bells and whistles (animations, transitions), the differences become greater. Be aware that fonts often cause problems: the standard Mac font set is not identical to the standard Windows font set, and some people might be using custom fonts. About the only way to be sure your Windows recipient will see a KN presentation exactly as it was constructed is if it's exported to QT, but that wouldn't suit your purpose at all.
If the editing you want to do is limited to text and other content, you shouldn't have too much of a problem. But I'd stay away from changing formatting, animations and transitions.
