You do not need to unpack the DTF files from Images by Attus, those DTF files which are not jumping wrong place in 0000-0027h address range, should work with the loader created by DTF.EXE.
For example I created a loader by the following command to DOMINATOR.DTF:
dtf -cl DOMINATO.COM DOMINATO.DTF

It did not work, because the original loader packed into DOMINATO.DTF jumps to 0020h instead of 0028h, i created a small patch into the generated loader, after it finish loading the original loader, it change RST 20h to RST28h at 0123h, and voila, the program works :D

But for most of the DTF files, this generated loader should work without any additional action.
