2D in what way? As a drawing (with lettering like O=C--H)? Or as an image
(of balls and sticks)? Both are available, although there are better ways
to do the drawing.

It's not a good way to put hundreds of structures on a single page. I would
argue that that's a bad way to show a page anyway.

That's what we need. Are they 2D or 3D mol files?
