Create PDFs persistently to enhance workflow #149

When making a PDF, the actual PDF file is deleted and recreated.  I suggest 
that the file should simply be overwritten, with the result that using PDF 
viewer such as Skim will detect the change and refresh the displayed PDF (if 
the file is deleted and then replaced, Skim will not update and one is forced 
to "Revert" from the file menu).

Wow - it's really hard to please everyone on this issue.  I had to add the 
removal and replacement for misbehaving pdf viewers that are in common use 
(xpdf, preview).  I wonder if we should make this an option?
