Just a heads up: it looks like using texi2dvi for
org-latex-to-pdf-process will not recompile a tex file in certain
cases. I have different output and source directories, and when I
publish a changed org file, texi2dvi appears to not process a tex file
when the pdf is already in the output directory.
I guess this could be an org-mode bug, since that default behavior
doesn't make sense and texi2dvi doesn't have a "force" flag. To me, it
appears that org-mode picks up the change in the org file and creates
the tex document correctly. The pdf isn't recreated unless I delete
the pdf in the output directory and then call org-publish-project
again.

BTW, the HTML file is updated fine in the output directory. Seems like
it *is* texi2dvi.

Nice! Very clever. Thanks for the tip! (CC-ing to the list, hope that's OK)

Small problem: if the file doesn't exist, rm fails with error, which
stops the process (the PDF file is not produced). This happens if I
create a new source file in my project.

change "rm %b-pdf" to "rm -f %b.pdf", that should take care of it.

Thanks for the help. I'm not really sure what's going on. A PDF file
is produced in my source directory, but not in my output directory. I
receive an error message saying the PDF file was not produced.
I didn't realize the customize menu had many different processes in
the value menu. I wanted something that would run bibtex, and I see
there is a process that runs pdflatex, bibtex, then pdflatex twice
more.
I get the expected result with that process, so I think I'll stick
with it for now.
Thanks for the help,
Jeff

In my case the rm does generate an error, but the process doesn't stop.
