Thanks for reporting this behaviour;
I changed \at into \tmat for version 0.3.5.14.
Please report any other bugs concerning conversions
to LaTeX to me before version 1.0.

I do not understand what you mean; the conversion should
be independent from the original format of the file.

If you just load and save a file, you usually get a message
"No changes need to be saved". You might have forgotten to
make a "dummy modification".
