<p>Additionally, for very large files, such as large [[Complexes|complexes]] or [[Morphs|morphs]], you may wish to take steps to reduce file size further prior to using file compression. In the end, the scene using your upload PDB file should load for a user in a reasonable amount of time. The best way to do this is often to only save the alpha carbons of the proteins as Jmol can still represent the proteins in many forms, including cartoon, backbone, trace, and ribbons.</p> | <p>Additionally, for very large files, such as large [[Complexes|complexes]] or [[Morphs|morphs]], you may wish to take steps to reduce file size further prior to using file compression.

Choose a '''file name''' carefully and put it in the ''Destination filename'' slot. The filename should be unique enough to distinguish it from all the other hundreds of files uploaded into Proteopedia, and descriptive enough to identify it. Do not include spaces in the filename -- use underscores or dashes to separate words. The filename should end in '''.pdb''' (or another file type that identifies the data format), or if compressed, '''.pdb.zip''' or the filetype that identifies the compression method. | Choose a '''file name''' carefully and put it in the ''Destination filename'' slot.
