pdftex is "equivalent" to tex and can only run with plain TeX. If your
LaTeX document doesn't include any EPS/PS, pdflatex should work. Here is
template so that you can run both latex and pdflatex:
%% Preamble
\ifx\pdfoutput\undefined % We're not running pdftex
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{report}
\else
\documentclass[pdftex,a4paper,12pt]{report}
%% More options described in pdfTeX manual
\pdfcompresslevel=9
\pdfinfo
{ /Title (Title of Document)
/Author (Your Name)
/Subject (???)
/Keywords (???)
}
\fi
...
\begin{document}
...
%% Example of including figures: pdflatex supports PDF, PNG and JPEG graphics
\begin{figure}
\centering
\ifx\pdfoutput\undefined
\includegraphics{fig.eps}
\else
\includegraphics{fig.pdf}
\fi
\end{figure}
...
\end{documnent}
