I got it to work now. Was looking in the wrong directory. I can view the pdf
file, which looks
as I would have expected to get by calling "texi2pdf myfile.texi" from the
command line.
Want to try doing this for every texinfo file, by telling emacs using a texinfo
mode hook.
So now, my task is to write a specific interactive function.
Thank you, would not have been able to do it by myself.

Seems to work using
M-x compile
texi2pdf myfile.texi
But I cannot find the generated pdf file.

You don't need 'make'. The 'compile' function accepts any shell command.
Just type:
M-x compile
then, when prompted, enter:
texi2pdf myfile.texi
If that works for you, you could follow Eli advice, and put the
following line, at the top of you file, to define the variable
'compile-command':
-*- compile-command: texi2pdf myfile.texi -*-
at the top of your file, so that you don't have to enter it manually
each time.
If you want to do this for every texinfo file, then, you may teach Emacs
to configure it for you, using a texinfo mode hook.
