Hi Alex, If you don't mind forgoing the ray tracing, you may try the draw command to specifically set the resolution (and antialiasing) to your needs, and then save the image.

If I try to ray it, the pymol session crashes (perhaps too many molecules are open). Using png xxx.png, dpi=300 or dpi=600 command doesn't make any difference; the image is still kind of low resolution for A0 or A1. Any idea how I can generate this in pymol? (I am using the free version of pymol) Thank you in advance, Alex
