Dear Shijun,

you can load the .phs file into coot and see the density; you don't need
a .mtz file for this specific purpose.

However, e.g. buccaneer does not read the .phs file which is why you
need to convert it. And "Use phi/fom instead of HL coefficients" in ccp4i.

The density modification method of SHELXE is described in
http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0907444909038360 ; the methods in the
phaser-EP are different - references are at
http://www.phaser.cimr.cam.ac.uk/index.php/Publications .

best,
Kay
