Dear Liu,MolConverter can do this job for you. It can output both 2D structure files and 2D images in various formats. Please follow this link http://www.chemaxon.com/marvin/doc/user/molconvert.html for more details. MolConverter is pure Java so you can run it on all Java enabled platforms including Linux too. It's free for academia, you may wish to look at http://www.chemaxon.hu/forum/ftopic193.html.
Hope you'll like it. Regards, Miklos Vargyas JunJun Liu wrote:
Dear All:Is there a software in linux can convert 3D small organic structures to 2Dsketch structures? It will be more preferable if the software has a function of exporting 2D structures to picutures. Thanks in advance! Liu
