What are the advantages? I had much problems with this method in the past.

pdflatex creates (lyx)->tex->pdf (best solution, you can embed images

possible with any method

I don't understand that. What other program is able to convert tex to pdf directly?


a good alternative is VTeX/Linux, which is free and can handle
_any_ graphics format and _any_ PostScript related code.

But VTeX is not free under Win, insn't it?

VTeX seems to be a complete (La)TeX distribution. Is it possible to use only the pdf-producing engine together/for other LaTeX-distributions?

Thanks in advance and regards
