Paper Template

Change the URL in the badge above to point to your own repository.

• Anonymous PDF with comments disabled

Change the URL above to point to your own PDF.

Build Requirements:

• Python3
• Pandoc.
  • Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install pandoc
  • MacOS: brew install pandoc
• Pygments: pip3 install pygments
• LaTeX: Currently tested with TeX Live 2022.
  • Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install texlive-full
  • MacOS: brew install texlive

Template Setup

1. Clone this repository.
2. Change the URLs in this README to point to your own repository and PDF.
3. Uncomment and customize the Upload PDF to Backblaze B2 step in .github/workflows/makefile.yml to upload to where you want, and save the B2 credentials as secrets in your repository. Or leave it commented out if you want.
4. Customize paper/package-config.sty. To start, look at \theTitle and \theAbstract.
5. Edit the paper body. The body is in paper/main.tex, and starts around line 100.
6. Change the paper style (ACM or IEEE) by changing the definition of \formattype in paper/main.tex.

Usage

1. From the root of the repo, you may run make to build the anonymous draft PDF. You may run make all to build all outputs: anonymous draft, anonymous non-draft (to submit), camera-ready, arXiv ZIP, and plain text abstract. Outputs are placed in out/. CI will build all of these on every push.
2. From within the paper/ directory, you may run make to build the paper according to the configuration in build-config.sty. LaTeX Workshop in VSCode and other tools will also use build-config.sty to build the paper, so you can change that as needed, and it shouldn't change CI or top-level Makefile behavior.

Tips

To embed all fonts for a camera ready:

   gs -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=main-embedded.pdf \
     -dCompatibilityLevel=1.5 -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -c .setpdfwrite -f main.pdf
