Jaim, I also suggest using

write isosurface "xxxx.jvxl"

from the Jmol application or signed applet. This only works if you
have a predefined notion of the surface you want to display; see notes
at

http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/isosurface.htm

and

http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/misc/JVXL-format.pdf

Basically, you just create the surface and write it to disk, then load
it with the isosurface command:

isosurface "xxxx.jvxl"
