 This importer has at the time of writing some issues with saved and exported SVG files from BKChem.

 Imported SVG (exported and saved from BKChem) files are drawn as boxes without content. Furthermore, the SXD import (exported from BKChem) crashes Scribus version 1.2.5.
 Version 1.3.3.8 gives the same results.
+==== Latex / Lyx ====
+The standard file format for inclusion of graphics is encapsulated postscript
+(EPS). BKChem has three different options for exporting postscript, all of which
+give slightly different results; overall the one based on piddle seems to work best.
+To avoid bounding box issues, activate the autocrop option (File -> File properties -> autocrop images) before exporting the file.
+If you use PdfLatex, EPS cannot be used - in this case, just export to PDF instead of EPS. The autocrop option should still be set.
 ==== Untested So Far ====
 I am just dumping program names that come to mind. Have to test them later.
