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.

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.
