Hi Rick a few comments: 1. I can recommend that you try PovRay output. It is PNG, transparent background and much better look. You don't need to learn how to use PovRay, producing the images is straightforward. You have to install PovRay, export to PovRay format from Jmol and then save from PovRay to PNG
2. I do not think that JPG may have transparent bacground; it would be white maybe. And as Bob says, the quality is always worse -- the only advantage is smaller files, at the cost of quality loss. 3. Given the way Jmol works for rendering I believe a vector format is not possible. VRML is possibly the closest to that idea, as it is made of "objects", but it is not practical for image production. Do try PovRay with eg 1000 px size, you will be surprised! I have a not particularly brilliant example at http://biomodel.uah.es/Jmol/export-image/exportPNG/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
