Hi Chris, Looks as though my previous reply did not reach you before you sent the link to "mols2grid". I discovered this python package recently, and it definitely looks to be of interest (albeit, at first glance, it appears a bit complicated). There is also a KNIME workflow for mols2grid that is available on the KNIME Hub.
However, I think I am getting close to a solution by using teh form view widget in ChemAxon InstantJChem. Thanks!
