Hello,

FYI, would be nice to explain your problem a bit more verbosely.
In short, you can plot charge density and the differences using the postprocessing of QE:

Input for calculation 1 (calculation of charge density 1) Insert correct outdir and prefix for it to work for you:

&INPUTPP
  prefix = 'calculation1'
  outdir = './out/'
  filplot='charge1.dat'
  plot_num=0
/

Input for calculation 2 (calculation of charge density 2):

&INPUTPP
  prefix = 'calculation2'
  outdir = './out/'
  filplot='charge2.dat'
  plot_num=0
/

Input for plotting the difference (1-2):

&INPUTPP
/
&PLOT
  nfile=2
  filepp(1)='charge1.dat'
  filepp(2)='charge2.dat'
  weight(1)=1.0
  weight(2)=-1.0
  iflag=3
  output_format=5
  fileout='difference.xsf'
/

You run all of these files with the pp.x executable of QE, and can visualize the data in difference.xsf with xcrysden. For the documentation, see https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/INPUT_PP.html
