Some clarification:

1. Which version of Phenix, and which platform?
2. GUI or command-line?
3. If you're really making a composite omit map (as opposed to a simple omit
map, e.g. for a ligand), ignore the PDB file output by AutoBuild and stick
to the original.

One common problem is that on Mac, if you try to open the MTZ file in Coot
(using the "Open MTZ", not auto-open), it will open a window to choose
column labels in the file, but it opens *behind* the main window, which you
need to move to the side temporarily.
