If I recall correctly, the PDB2PQR manual/description states that it is
*loosely* based on the PDB format. Where PDB assigns specific meanings to
columns (giving it a fixed format), the PQR file format's important features
are whitespace delimiters (making it free format). Thus, I'm not surprised
that PQRs aren't read by the loadpdb command in leap (and probably explains
why the column width is off compared to what loadpdb expects). I would
suggest against using PQRs for leap, since it appears to follow the PDB
format more strictly than the PQR format does.
