Recently, an attempt to convert an xyz file to a cif file failed miserably
. A collaborator using Materials Studio noticed an empty "buffer" region around the otherwise perfect unit cell. Numerous attempts to generate a unit cell without the extra space have all failed. The structure is P1 triclinic and will be used in periodic calculations, so the extra space is an issue. I was recently told "Vesta can't do xyz to cif conversions correctly." Is this really true?
