I tried to convert a PDB reflection file from mmCIF format
to MTZ using the following script:

cif2mtz  HKLIN r1d9ysf.cif HKLOUT test.mtz << eof > cif2mtz.out
TITLE 
CELL 40.58 111.01 140.42 90.0 90.0 90.0 
SYMMETRY 20 
LABOUT H=H  K=K L=L I=I SIGI=SIGI FC=FC PHIC=PHIC 
END
eof

The header of the CIF file is like:

data_r1d9ysf
#
loop_ 
_refln.index_h 
_refln.index_k 
_refln.index_l 
_refln.F_squared_meas 
_refln.F_squared_sigma 
_refln.F_calc 
_refln.phase_calc 
4 4 0 60253.66 8600.38 412.70 180.0
6 4 0 895.29 10474.46 165.40 180.0
........

The output MTZ file had 5 columns with FC and PHIC only. I thought the
item names in CIF file

_refln.F_squared_meas
_refln.F_squared_sigma

might not be recognized by CIF2MTZ routine. Follow the documentation I
modified them to 

_refln.intensity_meas
_refln.intensity_sigma

but the program could not even generate an MTZ file, it gave the error

 ***  Error
 From LWASSN : Duplicate column labels in output file, columns   4 and   7
both have the label FC
<B><FONT COLOR="#FF0000"><!--SUMMARY_BEGIN-->
 cif2mtz:  *** Program Terminated
  
Anything wrong in my CIF2MTZ script? Is there other way to achieve the
format conversion, can I use F2MTZ treating CIF file as a free formatted
ascii file?

Thanks for help,
