Pentax Digital Camera Utility 4, K7 and Lens corrections problem

Hello,

K7, apply automaticly lens corrections (if needed). It's a very good point.

But,

When i use PDCU4 to developped RAW files (PEF or DNG), 2 cases :

- none modification in PDCU4 = Lens correections are applied on the JPG (only when i extract JPG ; no when i send in the waiting list)

- Some corrections in PDCU4 (for ex : contrast+2 only ) in this case, lens corrections are systematicly lost. I have to apply corrections manualy.
Why ?

I think that lens corrections, send by the K7 box, have to be save in PDCU4 for final export, even if i do some other correction.

Your inpout is welcome.

Every one to confirm ?

In fact in none case PDCU4 (PPL) is able to apply K7' lens corrections, except when I do an JPG extraction (file by file). (crazy !!)
Corrections are only applied on the computer'screen.

Impossible to create jpg ou Tif file with lens correction, through the waiting list.

If vous want to work on a RAW file (PEF or DNG), it's w/o lens corrections, except if you do it manualy.

Is something bad in my understanding of a professional workflow ?
