More..

Features include: * Fixed length, fixed angle drawing. * Automatic alignment of figures. Detects structures, text, and arrows and places them automatically. * Can automatically draw rings and other structures has all standard amino acids and nucleic acids in built-in library. * Can retrieve structures from a network database based on CAS number, formula, or name. Can also retrieve information on a molecule in a drawing. The data file (05 August 2005, comma-separated, ~60 MB is freely available. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xdrawchem/xdcdb-080505.csv.gz?download
