Query from Demyan Prokopchuk ...
It is straightforward to import structures as EPS files into LaTeX from
ChemDraw, IsisDraw etc
and chemical journals often require that graphic files be submitted
separately as EPSs anyway
so it's not all bad.  One does lose the facility of directly editing the
structures but it
is a small price to pay and certainly a better way to go than via the
various "chemical texes"
which are way too clumsy for synthetic and other kinds of chemists.
