Try using the mol2 output format -- this will get atom types, and will
preserve the atom order.

You should be able to then load the mol2 file (using loadmol2 rather than
loadoff) and create the desired pdb file.
Thanks for your comments and problem reports. If the mol2 scheme doesn't work
they way you need, please let us know -- I'd like to get rid of the prep and
off formats, pushing everything to mol2, since that format is understood by
lots of other programs. But if there are things mol2 can't do, we need to
find that out, (and fix if possible).
