Peter, 

 

here are some general considerations for stereo images

 

A.  The images should be ~63mm apart with respect to a point which you 
consider to be neutral, i.e. neither lies in front or in the back of the 
zero-plane

B.  The distance of the images also put restrictions on their size, which 
is something you need to consider. Usually it is 1 ½ columns in a journal, if I 
am not mistaken.

C.  For labels I use a program like photoshop or canvas, just because one 
has a wider selection of fonts and they produce antialiased renderings. I 
usually attach labels to landmarks, with which they share the same depth. For 
example if you want to label residue 234 and have the residue drawn in stick, 
you could place both upper left corners of the labels on the CA position, group 
them and move them out of the way so as they do not interfere with the rest of 
the graphic. Using this trick ensures that the labels appear in the correct 
depth.
