I'm not sure what you mean by "removing the preview from the LaTeX  
file".  Are you asking what happens if I select Preview...Remove  
Previews...from buffer?  That has no effect, unfortunately.  I'm  
thinking this might have something to do with the filename variables  
in the auctex configuration.

Thanks.
