Hi Tim

I've looked at these images and they differ from the normal 6M images ("miniCBF") in that they are a stab at writing "fullCBF", i.e. with imgCIF style data content - unfortunately, there are a few syntax errors which need fixing before programs that use the header information (like Crysalis Pro, inter alia;-)) can do much useful with them.

XDS (and any other programs that ignore header information) should be able to process these provided the correct beamline values are supplied.

Dear Jose,

it is odd the software should read 6M but not 0.3M Pilatus files - the
format is probably the same, only the dimensions would differ - at
least that's my guess.
While you are waiting you might start processing your data with XDS,
which is well suited also for small molecules crystals. If your cell
is small, I recommend turning of refinement during the integration
step (REFINE(INTEGRATE)=!) and only refine all parameters during the
CORRECT step.
You need to make sure the spots are correctly predicted on the
FRAME.cbf, i.e. the cell from indexing is close enough to the correct one.

Best wishes,
Tim

Dear all, sorry for the semi-off-topic but I'm trying to help
convert some diffraction images and this seemed like a good place
to ask. We are trying to process some images collected on a Pilatus
300K with the Crysalis Pro software (small molecule) but it seems
to only be able to read Pilatus 6M frames. Is there an easy way to
convert the 300K dbf files to something readable by Crysalis?
(Oxford Diffraction, marCCD, Rigaku or Bruker AXS-SAXI). Thanks!

Jose
