Tex2pdf is just a wrapper script for pdflatex and some auxiliary tools (image conversion, hyperref, pdfthumb etc.). It asks you (if you call tex2pdf --config), amongst other things, if you want to use hyperref, what colors the links should have, if you want thumbnails etc. Those settings will automatically be used if you export via tex2pdf. I find it quite useful. Sorry, I was too rash then. I tested tex2pdf some time ago and had much trouble with it (under Win). I'll test it out again. thanks and regards Uwe

I found the following information instructive (not disagreeing)
and also alludes to another thread.
One has to keep in mind that, as opposed to TEX with its dvi output,
the pdfTEX program does not require a separate postprocessing stage
to transform the TEX input into a pdf file. As a consequence, all
data needed for building a ready pdf page must be available during
the pdfTEX run, in particular information on media dimensions and
offsets, graphics files for embedding, and font information
(font files, encodings).
http://www.cs.ubc.ca/~van/GI2005/giformat.htm
pdfLaTeX
The last way to generate a PDF file from LaTeX sources is to use the
free tool pdflatex, which we highly recommend. This system is built
upon pdftex, an enhancement of TeX which can generate resolution-
independent, searchable PDF directly. If you also include the standard
hyperref LaTeX package when compiling your document, the resulting PDF will
automatically have a hierarchical table of contents and citations,
footnotes and cross-references will be hyperlinked. You can also reference
Web URLs and have a web browser automatically come up when a hyperlink is
clicked in the Acrobat reader. This is all demonstrated in the source for
the example file available in the GI author's kit. See the TeX User's
Group's web site for documentation on hyperref and pdflatex.
