You have some code along the lines of \newif\ifpdf \ifx\pdfoutput\undefined \pdffalse \else \pdfoutput=1 \pdftrue \fi in your document to distinguish between pdfTeX and TeX (btw., this code was *never* really correct). Since now pdfeTeX is the standard engine for LaTeX alwas the \else path is taken and \pdfoutput is set to 1, thus enabling PDF output instead of DVI output (\pdfoutput=0, the standard value whan calling latex). Are you really sure you have to distinguish between PDF and DVI output? Many packages (notably graphicx and hyperef) are clever enough to detect the desired output automatically. If you are really sure you need to distinguish by hand then use ifpdf.sty. > I have seen on http://www.tug.org/tetex/tetex-texmfdist/doc/ > "Default engine: pdfetex is now the default engine used for most > formats (including latex)." > > But how can I get my dvi back? Don't set \pdfoutput to 1. Harry -- Nothing is impossible for the man who will not listen to reason.
