An example '.ini' file is shown below. It contains already all necessary configuration options for creating a PNG format image file. If you like, you can adapt the options in a text editor before running POV-ray like this: povray example.pov.ini ----- .ini example -------------------- ; Created by: Jmol 14.3.10_2014.11.27 2014-11-26 18:09 ; Creation date: Wed, 28 Jan 2015 15:10:48 +0100 ; File created: /home/waldorf/rhuehne/test/povray_test.pov (507662 bytes) ; Jmol state: (embedded in input file) Input_File_Name=povray_test.pov Output_to_File=true Output_File_Type=N Output_File_Name=povray_test.pov.png Width=2160 Height=1592 Antialias=true Antialias_Threshold=0.1 Display=true Pause_When_Done=true Warning_Level=5 Verbose=false --------------------------------------- Regards, Rolf -- Rolf Huehne Postdoc Leibniz Institute for Age Research - Fritz Lipmann Institute (FLI) Beutenbergstrasse 11 07745 Jena, Germany Phone: +49 3641 65 6205 Fax: +49 3641 65 6210 E-Mail: rhue...@fli-leibniz.de Website: http://www.fli-leibniz.de Scientific Director: Prof. Dr. K.
