What I do is expot the diagram as an eps and then convert it to pdf,
like this in a Makefile:
SOURCES := $(wildcard *.dia)
PDF := $(SOURCES:.dia=.pdf)
all : $(PDF)
%.pdf : %.eps
epstopdf $<
%.eps : %.dia
dia -e $@ $<
The make file saves the trouble of manually exporting an eps every
time I change a diagram.
Hope that helps!
