I have no idea how you got these charges: For sure, +0.394 is wrong...

See http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/ to get the corresponding
R.E.D. run:

http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/Ante_RED/
   => Ante_R.E.D. execution & Gaussian 2009 geometry optimization

http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/Data-RED/
   => R.E.D. run

The R.E.D. log file:
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/RED-vIII.3.log

The RESP inputs:
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/Data-RED/input1_m1
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/Data-RED/input1_m1

  & the RESP charges within the Tripos mol2 file:
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/Data-RED/Mol_m1-o1.mol2
    => Total charge = 0.0000

Your file is .
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/dmf.mol2

  --

http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/Data-RED/Mol_m1-o1.mol2
  &
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/FyD/DMF/dmf.mol2
are quite different...

I did a very quick job... However, the total charge = 0.

regards, Francois
