Re: [Biojava-dev] Problem converting ab1 to fastq files in Biojava 1.8

Sebastian,

I have also tried to obtain the AB1 quality scores using BioJava, but
was not successful. I can obtain them from scf files, but not AB1.
Looking at the API it appears that they are not available, but I would
be happy to be shown wrong!
