	| Hallo Christophe, 
 you don't need conformers for any of the descriptors or any descriptor based calculations. The only descriptor that needs 3D-structures is the flexophore, but it generates them internally. Typically, if a functionality requires 3D-atom-coords, which are not there,then it will show a dialog asking you to generate conformers.
