Paul,

I use TeXShop, which is simply a front-end designed specifically for
OS X. Underneath is, I believe, a fairly typical TeX installation.
I've rarely found the need to alter any of the defaults, so I'm not
too sure what's going on behind the scenes. The default typesetting is
'LaTeX' and the default script is 'Pdftex' (one of the other options
being 'TeX + DVI') -- perhaps that's it, do you have a 'Pdftex' option
under linux?

Here's a link to a report I compiled using TeXShop where nearly all
the figures were PDF graphics (originally produced as EPS):

Figures are absolutely identical to the EPS originals, but PDF has
smaller filesizes and near instantaneous on-screen rendering. The OS X
Maill application will perfectly render attached PDF graphics, which
is handy for quick exchange.
