I mean when you finish all the calculations, and you need to publish your results in many cases it is necessary to do the graph with energy surface. It seams that molecules were taken from Gaussian View, Molekel, or smth similar but how do you produce graph? I think all the chemists who deal with energy surface use the same program to create the graph, correct? Thank you very much for any help.

E vs. one bond length and one bond angle, or E vs. two bond lengths, etc. Such graphs are normally a mesh surface. The raw data comes from a _PES scan_ by a computational program, which creates a table of three parameters, geom1, geom2, and E. All chemists do not use the same program; there are a few popular commercial programs and some free ones which will accept the PES table and create the graph. I suggest you check the CCL archives for information on such programs. If you can't find such info, look up 3D graphing programs with Google, and ask CCL readers for their views on the promising-looking ones. E.
