Easily, I have a pdb complex(pdb: 1O5P), I want to produce corresponding gro top files, but I can only produce chromophore gro and top file using amb2gmx.pl .Are you clear ?

It sounds like my earlier advice is appropriate. If you need to insert
your chromophore into your protein to form a complex to give yourself an
initial structure, then you will need to choose that protein structure
in a suitable conformation (this is not trivial) and then to "dock" that
chromophore. How easy it is to do the latter will depend on your
available experimental information. Google (or scientific literature)
searching for "docking" and "model building" is your best bet here -
it's well outside the scope of the GROMACS tool set.
