Submit Paper Using minted onto arXiv

According to Notes for using minted.sty in arXiv:

arXiv cannot process using the --shell-escape option, as this is disabled in arXiv's system for security reasons.

In other way, we should include the raw LaTeX code generated from minted package. Also the raw LaTeX code should be placed in unhiddened directory.

First, add options for minted package:

\usepackage[frozencache=true,cachedir=minted-cache]{minted} 

Compile and place the internal files into minted-cache directory:

Internal Files Generated by minted

Then, download arXiv submission zip provided by overleaf:

Overleaf arXiv Submission File

Finally, put the downloaded raw LaTeX files into submission zip ball (under minted-cache/).

Helvetica Not Embedded When Submiting to EDAS

Reference: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/329349/helvetica-font-not-embedded

I had this problem on a Mac with a PDF I was submitting to IEEE. Using Adobe Reader and Preview, I was able to get around this. I think any pdf printer might work in place of Preview if you are on a PC.

Here are the steps I took. You can individually fix each figure, or fix the whole document.

  1. Open at pdf file using Adobe Reader.
  2. Right click on image, and click “Document Properties.”
  3. Click “Fonts.” Check to see if the font isn’t embedded. Should say “Courier” or other font name.
  4. If your pdf isn’t a standard page size, click on “Description” and look at the page size. Write this down. Ex. 19.4 x 5.22 in.
  5. Open the pdf up in Preview. Go to File->Print. If using a pdf that isn’t a standard page size, click on Paper Size and choose custom. You will need to create a custom page size that is equal to the one you wrote down in step 4. Don’t forget to zero the margins to 0 for all sides. After doing that, you’ll need to set the scale of the print in the print dialog to 100%.
  6. In the lower left of the print dialog (in Preview on a Mac), click “PDF” to print the PDF to a new PDF. Select the destination and print.
  7. Open the new pdf up in Adobe Reader and verify that the fonts are now embedded.
