[Imgcif-l] CBF Format

Hello everyone, My name is Justin Anderson with Rayonix (formerly MarUSA). I have been given the task of adding CBF format support to the marccd program. I was hoping you could help me with a few questions that have arisen. I truly appreciate it. Now for the questions... 1) Are miniCBF files meant to be read by imaging programs such as marccd or are they expected to be converted to full CBF format first? 2) What is the minimum set of fields that is necessary for an official miniCBF and CBF file? In the "Simple Example Header" in section 2 of the Draft Format (http://www.iucr.org/iucr-top/cif/cbf/cbf_definition.html) it does mention at one point that "the above" data items are optional. Does that imply that the items below are required? 3) Some items can exist in both the header area and the MIME area. One such example is the image size (e.g. fastest and second-fastest number of pixels). When reading a CBF file, should I expect to get that information from the MIME, the CBF header area or would it be found in both? I appreciate any help you can give me.
