[3dem] Loosing tilt angle information by dm4Tomrc conversion

[Steven Ludtke]

Hi Christian, the current version of EMAN2.1 should be able to read DM4 images/stacks and headers. What version were you trying ?  If you are having a problem with this please let us know as it should be working properly.

It would be also quite useful if someone knows a conversion script that preserves this information (EM2EM, EMAN2 for instance are all not versatile to this as they do not support dm4 or they cannot handle dm4 dose fractionation stacks).
