Hmm well, I got it, by only pasting everything between 
\begin{align*}... \end{align*}, and then by manually making a multiline 
alighned formula out of it. 
Still would be better, if it would recognize the formula on its own or at 
least if it would not escape everything and simply keep the tex code.


Thanks,
