Has DigiKam a limit on file sizes?

[Arran]

Hello
I am scanning pictures my wife draws analogue with crayons, some coloured
and some black/white. They all base on an good and strong A4 paper. I scan
them (Epson) with 2400 dpi, and receive usually files of about 4 to 7 MB as
*.png files. Saved with TIFF is usually over 30MB, but several tests we
produced are not showing any real improvement.

As first handling, I save the files immediately as a Gimp-file, *.xcf,
receiving more than double the *.png-file. 

When I look now at these files via digiKam, I can see all files I have
further manipulated like cropped to ideal format (usually eliminating white
unwanted space) and trimmed the picture into the correct size for later
printing. However, the original scaned *.pdf, neither the correxponding
*.xcf file is shown, just a symbol shows that there is something, Klicking
on it does not start anything. 

I searched in Settings, Configure DigiKam, if I can find something to allow
larger files but found nothing. 

Can anybody help me?

Kubuntu 14.04-5, 4 core, 8gb  RAM
