Please excuse multiple postings.

Version 2.1 of the Marvin Java applets for drawing and displaying
chemical structures in HTML pages is released and can now be tried and
downloaded at http://www.chemaxon.com/marvin.
A new paper showing features is at
http://reprints.net/ecsoc-3/e0002/e0002.htm

Marvin is free for free Internet sites. (Intranet and Extranet sites:
50% discount in September.)

Among other possibilities, Marvin can now be integrated with JChem, our
new Java based system for searching and handling chemical structures on
the Web or Intranets (http://www.jchem.com).

We are looking for partners (who would like to integrate our products
with their software) and distributors.

If you need our help in upgrading, please send your web page containing
a previous version of Marvin to [email-masked].
