Overview

PyMOL can save videos to formats (.mpg) that can be converted to a movie PDF (will not work with most PDF browser plugins; must be downloaded and viewed with certain viewers liked Adobe Acrobat 9.2+).

Requirements

  • PyMOL
  • LaTeX (pdflatex)

Get .mpg file from PyMOL

  • Save a .mpg file from your video.

You can try this tutorial:

LaTeX code

  • The following LaTeX code saved as "pymol.tex":
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[3D]{movie15}
\usepackage[UKenglish]{babel}
\usepackage[colorlinks=true]{hyperref} 
\begin{document}
\title{PyMOL 3D Objects in PDF}
\author{Troels Linnet}
