to paste the jmol images in a powerpoint is more simply implemented
by the Clipboard feature in the Java

I have a patch to use a clipboard with a keyListener patch.
and it works fine for me

http://chem.skku.ac.kr/~wkpark/chem/jmol-cvs.patch

http://chemie.skku.ac.kr/jmol.html

click the applet with mouse and press 'Y' to copy the shot of the applet
and <Ctrl>-V in the Powerpoint or whatever you want to insert in.

----------- Jmol.java
...
  // This class is used to hold an image while on the clipboard.
  public class ImageSelection implements Transferable {
    private Image image;

    public DataFlavor imageFlavor;

    public ImageSelection(Image image) {
      this.image =3D image;
      // hack in order to be able to compile in java1.3
      imageFlavor =3D
	        new DataFlavor("image/x-java-image; class=3Djava.awt.Image",
		   "Image");
    }

    // Returns supported flavors
    public DataFlavor[] getTransferDataFlavors() {
      return new DataFlavor[]{imageFlavor};
    }
   =20
    // Returns true if flavor is supported
    public boolean isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor flavor) {
      return flavor.equals(imageFlavor);
    }
   =20
    // Returns image
    public Object getTransferData(DataFlavor flavor) throws
UnsupportedFlavorException, IOException {
      if (!flavor.equals(imageFlavor)) {
        throw new UnsupportedFlavorException(flavor);
      }
      return image;
    }
  }
...

  public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e)
  {
    char keyChar =3D e.getKeyChar();
    if (keyChar =3D=3D 'h' || keyChar =3D=3D 'H') {
       System.err.println("oops");
       return;
    }
    if (keyChar =3D=3D KeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED)
       return;
    switch(keyChar) {
...
    case 'y':
    case 'Y':
       Dimension size =3D jvm12orGreater ? jvm12.getSize() :
appletWrapper.size();
       Image image=3DappletWrapper.createImage(size.width,size.height);
       Graphics gg=3Dimage.getGraphics();
       viewer.setScreenDimension(size);
       Rectangle rectClip =3D
         jvm12orGreater ? jvm12.getClipBounds(gg) : gg.getClipRect();
      =20
       viewer.renderScreenImage(gg, size, rectClip);
       ImageSelection imgSel =3D new ImageSelection(image);
       =
Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard().setContents(imgSel,
null);
       break;

and of course, any software like this requires user involvement for
installation, etc.  you can Google for "screen capture animations".
