Second part of reply, regarding the generation of images.

Yes, the views can be captured to the user's computer, in a web page 
(e.g. popup window) from where the user can copy or save them to 
disk, using the browser's capabilities.
If you need to "capture" to the server, I cannot say *but see below.

The discussion on how to make snapshots is quite long. There are 
several mesages in the list some time ago and there are several 
places that use this functionality; Bob has at least one, I dont0 
remember exactly where right now, and I have a testpage/tutorial at
http://biomodel.uah.es/Jmol/export-image/index.htm
See if you can make it from that, then ask if you need help.

image editing program (I would not recommend Powerpoint, as the 
quality of saved images is poor). You get a jpeg file directly.

Now that I think of it, in fact all the trouble was getting the 
server-generated image into the client browser, so there should be a 
way to store the image in the server maybe.
