Hi, Not the quickest way, but you can easily convert PHS files to MTZ files using CCP4i ("Convert to/modify/extend MTZ" - via the f2mtz programme). Then generate the map as you would a normal MTZ file.
Since PHS files come in 2 flavours, check the following web site to see which format your's is in ( http://www.sdsc.edu/CCMS/Packages/XTALVIEW/XV5.docmod2_2.html#xfit). You need to input the Fortran format of the PHS file; for H, K, L, Fobs, FOM, and PHI it's "3f4.0,f8.2,2f10.2". Other useful tools for PHS/FIN/FSFOUR maps can be found at: http://www.scripps.edu/~cdputnam/software/software.html Cheers!
