Hi, here is how I have been doing this:
- CS refinement: depending on your workflow
- CS Restack particles: set a batch size >= the total number of particles (gets rid of unused particles from early refinement)
- CS Particle sets: open input card and remove location attribute, then “split” to 1 batch (makes the set portable)
- Export Particle sets job
- Move job directory with symlinks disabled (optional, if CS/CD are running on separate machines)
- Downsample particles for CD: cryodrgn downsample [input particle stack] -D 128 -o particles.128.mrcs
- Parse poses into .pkl file: cryodrgn parse_pose_csparc cryosparc_P27_J3_005_particles.cs -o pose.pkl -D 300 (where -D is your original box size)

Hope this helps!
