I can't account for it. If I feed pdftex a latex file, it whines for every latex command it encounters, but if I press enter on each encountered command error in the interactive console (if that is indeed the term for it) it eventually exits completely (maybe it wants me to '\end') , producing a pdf file (the text of which comprises both the unknown latex commands as plain old text as well as the text as, well, pdf-style text, if you catch my drift). >> All roads lead to Rome, I reckon. > > You always learn something new on this list.
