The thing that is most likely to work is to use antechamber to create the
Gaussian input file, i.e. something like this:

  antechamber -fi pdb -i myfile.pdb -fo gcrt -o myfile.com

Then use Gaussian with "myfile.com" as input. If you roll your own Gaussian
input file, use the example above as a template.

no.

see above.
