width=,left=,right=,height=,top=,bottom= (of course, only two of width, left,
and right are to be used at a time, as well as two of height, top, and bottom)
define the bounding box of the drawing. This is given in units of 4000 per
standard bond length. To visualize this, try,
\startchemical [frame=on,axis=on,width=4000,height=4000]
\chemical [ONE,SB,Z0] [O]
\chemical [THREE,B]
\chemical [FOUR,B]
\chemical [FIVE,B]
\chemical [SIX,B,R,RZ] [1,2,3,4,5,6]
\chemical [EIGHT,B]
\stopchemical
For fit+offset, I suggest positioning the chemical drawing inside a
\framed[frame=off]{} box using offsets, or some other variant (I particularly
like using collectors).

Try "style=sans". We also have "color=" and "rulecolor=".

There are some problems still in mkiv, notably with CARBON, NEWMANSTAGGER,
NEWMANECLIPSE, and CHAIR. Hans (and I) intend to work on this but it is not
too high of a priority for the moment. Let me know if you have other problems
in using ppchtex.
