[OS X TeX] pdftex in TL2004

[Vinayak Vatsal]

Hi Gerben,

I tried your suggestion, but it didn't quite work: I got an error as follows

pdfTeX error (ext1): \pdfmapfile used while \pdfoutput is not set.
<recently read> \pdfmapfile

On the other hand, the PDF file seemed to be created. Any idea what this is 
about?
