[Chimera-users] file format conversion using chimera

[Elaine Meng]

Hi S,
If you mean you want to simulate a density map from an atomic  
structure, it can be done using the  "molmap" command:

<http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/molmap.html>

Then (as mentioned in the link above) you can use Volume Viewer or the  
"volume" command to save the map to a file.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
