How do I tell which of the three pdf exports I'm
getting?
just pass the one you want, they are defined in the File->Export
menu I think. The default 'pdf' uses ps2pdf and 'pdflatex' uses
pdflatex.
you are wrong, pdflatex exports to .tex. you have to use pdf2 :)
Where is this documented???
It is not well documented, but here is how you can find it:
1. Have a look at the file->export menu. Here you see all available exports,
but with names like "PDF (pdflatex)" instead of "pdf2"
2. Open tools->preferences->file formats
Look at the entry for "PDF (pdflatex)
It has a "short name" that is "pdf2". So pdf2 is the name to use
with "lyx -e".
I think you can export to any format that is available
on file->export. This depends on what converters you have
installed. So documenting this in a textfile is not the best
idea. If lyx could support something like "lyx -e --list", then it could
show all available formats in the current installation.
