molecule toBinFormat() returning empty byte[]

I'm trying to get a byte array from a molecule object so that I can create an image to be displayed in an asp.net page.

I'm using data retrieved from the structure table. I'm able to create a molecule from the cd_structure blob or the cd_smiles data however when I try to create a byte array by the toBinFormat ("jpeg:h300,w300") method, the byte array returned is empty.

The toObject (as Image) method won't work as it returns a java based buffered image which isn't accepted by either the System.Drawing.Bitmap or Image constructors which then leads me back to needing a byte array for that conversion.

Do you have any examples I could look at?

Thanks,

Molly
