Actually, 3D molecular structures are already on 2D paper for many, many years... I remember reading chemical literature from the 1920's with stereoscopes in it. If you look at it correctly, you see a perfect 3D representation of the molecule. Looking at it takes some practice, but it works without the need of special glasses or anything.
