About:
arxiv-latex-cleaner prepares LaTeX projects for arXiv submission by automatically removing unnecessary files and content. It cleans auxiliary files, comments, and can downsample images to meet submission size limits. This tool streamlines the process of creating clean, minimal arXiv-ready archives from complex LaTeX source directories.
Key Features:
  • Automatic removal of auxiliary and non-essential files
  • Image downsampling and format conversion for size limits
  • Comment removal and code cleaning
  • Configurable rules via YAML file
  • Preserves compilation functionality
Use Cases:
  • Preparing manuscripts for arXiv submission
  • Cleaning up LaTeX projects for sharing or publication
  • Reducing repository size for LaTeX documents
Alternatives:
  • latexmk – latexmk manages compilation but doesn't clean for submission; arxiv-latex-cleaner focuses on preparing archives
  • arxiv-latex-deps – Similar purpose but arxiv-latex-cleaner offers more comprehensive cleaning and image processing
