Use File> Export> and then choose your format. Probably it is PDF
(pdflatex) that you want, but it could be different, depending upon
your document.
PS Reading the Stack Exchange thread, View is intended for checking how
the document will actually look. Use Export when you are wanting to
share it, or post it, or submit it, or whatever. The latter is something
you would presumably do a lot less often. I at least do not want a new
PDF in the document directory every time I check a minor change.
PPS If you are not sure what format your document is using, check the
Document menu and see what it says for the default "View" action.
