 Hi,
   a recent thread has been asking about the conversion of
 PDB files to povray input. Luckily, there is a utility available
 which accomplishes this, source for which is available in the public
 domain by anonymous ftp from:
 ftp.povray.org  in /pub/povray/incoming/utilities/pdb2pov_src.tar.Z
 A number of options are available including CPK, VDW and ball & stick
 as well as the ability to include sky(!) and tiled floors. I know that
 Roger Sayle has povray exporting on his wish list for RASMOL - I do
 not know if that is in the pipeline or some way off. Obviously a
 preview of the molecular geometry is vital before submitting a very
 costly rendering job.
 Hope this is of some use.
