Yep, phenix.refine also always creates one reflection file that contains
map coefficients. In fact, it contains all together:
- original Iobs (or Fobs - whatever the user specified);
- Fobs used in refinement;
- Fmodel (the total model structure factor including all scales,
bulk-solvent etc), so one can readily recompute the R-factor;
- freeR flags;
- and map coefficients (mFo-DFc, 2mFo-DFc and 2mFo-DFc with missing Fo
filled in with DFc).

The question is whether the PDB retains this information?
