Dear Rajib,

Pymol reads atom labels and positions from a coordinate file. It then
determines which atoms are bonded based on distance criteria. That is used
to draw the molecule.
Pymol also has an internal library of molecules and fragments, with atoms
and bonds, which can be used to build bigger molecules.

QM methods are required to determine an optimal molecular geometry. But
that's not something Pymol does. Just read in coordinates and draw those.

Hope it helps,

Tsjerk
