Hi Scott,
Sorry, there is no simple way.  DX is read as a volume data file, and the choices for saving volume data are MRC (default), NetCDF, Chimera map, BRIX, or IMAGIC format.

volume data input formats:

volume data output formats:

I said "no simple way" because I'm sure it is possible with Python coding, but I don't know how complicated that would be, and I cannot advise since I don't know Python myself.  If you're familiar with any of the other output formats you may be able to write your own converter script.

Regards,
Elaine
