[Sheflug] LaTeX

[Richard <nospam [at] sheflug.co.uk>]

Dear All

I've been trying a few things out with LaTeX. I'm not really all that
good with it.  I'd like to learn more.

I notice that if I use Lyx it will generate the appropriate code for
me.  After producing the document I'd like to turn it into a PDF
document with PDFLATEX.

I've looked into man pdflatex and all I can see is a few vague
comments that don't make any sense to me or anyone else I've talked
to.

If I want to put "testfile.lyx" through pdflatex what command do I use
?  Is it something like 'testfile.lyx > pdflatex' or is it something
else ?

Thanks


Richard
