This is one of those topics that seems to crop up every three years or so. Since then, new versions of operating systems, new versions of programs, mobile devices and perhaps some progress?  Right, I will briefly recapitulate. Chemical structure diagrams are special; they contain chemical semantics (what an atom is, what a bond is, stereochemistry, charges, etc). One needs special programs to represent this. Take two well-known ones.

Most of the chemical structure diagrams in this blog originate from Chemdraw, which seems to have been around since the dawn of personal computers! I have tended to use this program to produce JPG bitmaps for the blog, writing them out in 4x magnification, so that they can be scaled down for display whilst retaining some measure of higher resolution if needed for other purposes.
