Dear Rene

I have used a company called Imaage in Australia for engraving
proteins in glass blocks. Their web address is

http://www.imaage.com.au/

I send them VRML output from MOLSCRIPT and that usually works fine.
You need to generate the image in a single color (black), though you
can use a second color if you want them to map that to a different
dot density of laser etching.

cheers
