Dear Paul and Rolf,
Many thanks for your suggestions. I particularly like Rolf's approach because
it specifies lots of pixels and worked nicely. I did indeed have to navigate
the the directory containing Jmol.jar and match the version of Jmol.jar to that
used in the web site.
All the best
Nick

Hi,
I do POVRAY images from Jmol with my mac intel routinely. I installed povray
through MacPorts, and I run it from the terminal.

Hi All,
I would like to create a 2D high resolution image from a Jmol applet view. I
see the export options are four image formats which look fine but are less than
the 300 dpi I am seeking. (Pov-ray crashes every time on Intel Macs) So I
wondered if exporting in 3D and them saving as 2D .tiff would be an option. The
trouble is I don't own software that can handle the 3D formats!
Does anyone have experience in generating very high resolution 2D images from
Jmol like this on Mac OS? I feel as though Pov-Ray should be the answer.
MegaPOV http://megapov.inetart.net/works on Mac OS X but does not export to
.tiff .
Best regards
Nick

I just thought about a second option :
you can export the state from the applet, and load it in the Jmol application.
from the Jmol application, you can create an image with any size setting you
want.

You could save the state and generate it with Jmol as application using
the command-line with a command like this:
java -Xmx2048m -jar Jmol.jar -o -n -g 2000x2500 -q 9 -w PNG:high_res.png
-s state_script_filename
This command should generate a 2000 x 2500 pixel image in PNG format.
The "-Xmx2048m" option increases the maximum memory used by the Java
virtual machine to 2048 megabytes. Depending on the resolution,
structure, available memory it might be necessary to adapt this value.
Before running the command you might need to set the current working
directory to the directory where the "Jmol.jar" file is located.
Regards,
Rolf
