I got your note later this morning. Thanks for the reply. Yes, a manual
run on a Latex export works. I've put the results of my "scrounging around"
in (yet) another note to the group.
The output I see when trying to use the converter says something like
"Exporting Latex to Ochem" followed by a line showing the call to the
script, followed by the Latex log output I normally see when the script is
run, which shows the error being generated during the first Latex run (where
the drawing package extracts the code from the file for processing).
That last part I confirmed by manually running latex on the file (as done in
the script).

I'll give it a try. Thanks!

learning of many facts but the training of the mind to thinking--something
that cannot be learned from books. Albert Einstein
