Someone knowing fortan showed me that in many cases you can simply omit the FORMAT keyword in f2mtz, provided the columns never use up the full column width (i.e., in your case: there is no reflection with amplitude > 9999999.99).

Simply use SKIP, LABOUT and CTYPOUT to read in your data (and title, cell, etc.).

Hi,

Could anyone give a quick hint for the Fortran format for the following
structure factor mmCIF file? or Is there any easy program or better way to
convert it? I think I need to skip first 3 columns.

Thanks in advance.

I am trying to view the electron density of a published structure. I
downloaded the file from pdb and used cif2mtz in ccp4. I think the following
output mtz is wrong.
