how to submit a latex article to pattern recognition letters journal - latex

the available upload options are
and what i uploaded are
but what i get is not a pdf file after submission, but it's latex tags, it is similar to:
what am i missing? i've uploaded all .sty, .bst, .bib, .tex, .png files in the folder:

How about reading the Guide for Authors on the Elsevier website and/or the prletters-template-with-authorship.pdf file you have there?
Upload only the .tex files and the figures, and include the .bbl directly into the .tex file (typically these submission systems like that better).
Finally, from your screenshot it seems that the journal submission system does not like .pngs. You should convert them to TIFF or EPS (or any other standard format) that is suggested in the submission information to authors.

Hi to all finally i submitted successfully by the following order
don't forget to upload the Highlights as a separate file

Can I attach/embed a file to a Latex document and hyperlink it to a word for saving purposes?

I am trying to attach a .condarc file to my Latex journal as an installation guide. I want users for my workshop to click on a hyperlink and be able to save/download the file. Is this possible through Latex in general? What about on Overleaf?
I've looked all over the place, however there seem to only be file specific packages.
I tried using the embedfile and attachfile packages. Here's an example of what I did:
\usepackage{embedfile}
\embedfile[
desc={Source of Package 'embedfile'}
]{.condarc }
I did the above because I thought the first step is to get the file embedded somewhere, anywhere. Then I could reference the file in later steps.
Thank you for any guidance!
If you use a pdf viewer that supports attachments (e.g. adobe reader) the following example using the attachfile package will attach the .codarc file to the pdf and produce a text link that will prompt the user for future action:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{attachfile}
\begin{document}
test \textattachfile[color=1 0 0]{.codarc}{.codarc}
\end{document}
(please be aware that even if a pdf viewer might be technically equipped to open such embedded files, users may have this feature disabled due to security concerns)
Instead of attaching the file, one could also host it somewhere on the internet and put a link into the pdf. This will work for a much larger variety of pdf viewers.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
test
\href{https://raw.githubusercontent.com/samcarter/tikzducks/master/LICENSE.txt}{LICENSE.txt}
\end{document}

How to make a Photoshop (.psd) file have hyperlinks when saved as a .PDF file?

I created a template for a document i want to use, in photoshop.
I want to share this document as a PDF file.
I want some of the text i made in photoshop to work as hyperlinks and direct ppl to websites.
How do i save a photoshop file as a PDF and get hyperlinks to work in the PDF file?
I have tried using the slice tool. It works to assign a url and target.
But when saved as a PDF the links do not work.
Anyone?
I know that indesign allows for saving pdf documents in either print or web format. the latter allows for hyperlinks to be available. if photoshop does not offer this you can always add them in acrobat (not reader) and then resave the .pdf.

Any way to recover the comments from OpenOffice to docx

I was revising a paper with someone in OpenOffice 3.2 and made several comments that do not seem to appear when I reopen the .docx file. Are these comments gone forever? or am I not viewing the file correctly?
I didn't have any warnings or messages when I saved it as a .docx, so I'm not sure if this is a bug.
I'm sure this is too late for you, but perhaps this will help other people out.
There's currently a bug open for OpenOffice as of 3.4.1 that describes this issue. I ran into it myself. https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=113059
Basically, if you open a .docx file in OpenOffice that has comments, every comments box will display all the comments in the entire document. The workaround for this issue is to first save the file as a .doc from Word and then open the .doc file in OpenOffice instead of the .docx.
It's also important to note that OpenOffice won't save as .docx so in your case, you probably didn't lose anything. If open a .docx file with comments, the comments will be screwed up in OpenOffice. If you then try to save the document, it will prompt you to save as a .doc in the Save As dialog since OpenOffice can't save over the original file. The resulting .doc file will be permanently screwed up with all the comments combined and repeated in every single comments fields. However, this is actually inadvertently convenient here because it prevents the above bug from causing you to permanently lose all comments in the original file by forcing you to save as a new .doc file.
Here's the open bug that shows that you can't save as a .docx: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=88355. You'll also notice that it's not an option in the Save dialog.

How to create a reflowable content from the PDF?

I am going to developing an application, which is an epub. I have PDF files. I need to make those files as reflowable content(epub)... Then only the PDF files will be viewable in mobiles, tablets... etc.. Please suggest the solutions to make reflowable contents from the PDF...
If you don't mind using an open source software, go with Sigil.
If you want to learn innards of how to create by hand, or some tool of your own, Follow this. (This is a one month course, So you will not get all the content in one day, though).
Create the folder structure.
In a folder of your choice, create the following: META-INF (folder), OEBPS (folder), mimetype ( a file with exactly same name ).
Put application/epub+zip in the file mimetype. No spaces no lines.
Convert your PDF to text format. In Adobe acrobat, you will have file > export> .
Read the content from PDF, you will find some conclusions of how you can split them in to chapters or sub reading topics. Split according to the understanding of the book, and make so many text files.
Make sub folder structure. Make Images, Text, Styles (folders) content.opf, toc.ncx (files) inside OEBPS folder.
Put all your split files in Text folder created in step 5.
put all images extracted in pdf in Images folder
Put any styles (not describing here,) in Styles folder.
In the META-INF folder created in step 1, create a file called container.xml and fill with the following: <?xml version="1.0"?><container version="1.0" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:opendocument:xmlns:container"> <rootfiles> <rootfile full-path="OEBPS/content.opf" media-type="application/oebps-package+xml"/> </rootfiles></container>.
If you are able to do these many things sincerely, ping again, I would try to tell you what you should put in content.opf, and toc.ncx in created in step 5.
As an example, You can use some example from my site. Download from here and use them with caution. Do not distribute.
We're opening up a beta for our web based pdf reflow viewer at the beginning of 2015. Feel free to sign up to be part of our beta test. More info here:

Reading ePub format

I am trying to develop an iPhone application to read ePub files. Is there any framework available to develop this? I have no idea about how to read this file format. I tried to parse a sample file with .epub extension using NSXML Parser, but that fails.
The EPUB format brings together a bunch of different specifications / formats:
one to say what the content of the book should look like (a subset of XHTML 1.1 + CSS)
one to define a "manifest" that lists all of the files that make up that content (OPF, which is an XML file)
one to define how everything is packaged up (OEBPS: a zip file of everything in the manifest plus a few extra files)
The specs look a bit daunting but actually once you've got the basics (unzipping, parsing XML) down it's not particularly difficult or complex.
You'll need to work out how to download the EPUB, to unzip it somewhere, to parse the manifest and then to display the relevant content.
Some pointers if you're just starting out:
parse xml
unzip
To display content just use a UIWebView for now.
Here's a high level step by step for your code:
1) create a view with a UIWebView
2) download the EPUB file
3) unzip it to a subdirectory in your app's documents folder using the zip library, linked above
4) parse the XML file at META-INF/container.xml (if this file doesn't exist the EPUB is invalid) using TBXML, linked above
5) In this XML, find the first "rootfile" with media-type application/oebps-package+xml. This is the OPF file for the book.
6) parse the OPF file (also XML)
7) now you need to know what the first chapter of the book is.
a) each <item> in the <manifest> element has an id and an href. Store these in an NSDictionary where the key is the id and the object is the href.
b) Look at the first <itemref> in the <spine>. It has an idref attribute which corresponds to one of the ids in (a). Look up that id in the NSDictionary and you'll get an href.
c) this is the the file of the first chapter to show the user. Work out what the full path is (hint: it's wherever you unzipped the zip file to in (3) plus the base directory of the OPF file in (6))
8) create an NSURL using fileURLWithPath:, where the path is the full path from (7c). Load this request using the UIWebView you created in (1).
You'll need to implement forward / backward buttons or swipes or something so that users can move from one chapter to another. Use the <spine> to work out which file to show next - the <itemrefs> in the XML are in the order they should appear to the reader.
Apparently EPUB is "just" an XML format, so if you have an xml parser and the spec it should be okay.
Plus a little tuto? Have fun!
EDIT: you could also read some code here, this is for generating epub, not reading them but the code may be useful.
EDIT again: And see links to related question in the right sidebar, there are some links in the answers to free ebook reader which support ePub.
EDIT 3: You should add a comment when you edit your question so people who answer you can continue the discussion (if you don't comment we're not noticed of your edit).
So, The parsing fail because you didn't read the spec or related questions on Stack Overflow... *.epub file are a zipped folder containing XML file(s), not plain xml.
I read through this tutorial once (free registration required, sorry) and it gave me a great introduction to ePub. deverloperWorks tutorial here
I highly suggest you look at some of the XML processing libraries. If you just want to get specific information out of the XML file, then you can pick the right parsing strategy.
there is an open source project fbreader,
it also support iphone
http://www.fbreader.org/about.php
I'm playing arround to create an epub-framework for iphone apps.
At the moment (I really just startet) i can generate a title page with links to the chapters.
My approach is
Use quickconnect iphone framework as
a layer (maybe i change to phonegap)
which basically allows for javascript
apps as iphone apps
Add the UNZIPed epub as a ressource to the project
Parse the whole thing with a customized version of the epub.js (somewhere on google-code)
Right now I'm looking into pageflip, some kind of gui and minor usability issues (save the current page beingviewed)
I hope that give's you an idea on how to start
Jonathan Wight (schwa) has developed a ObjC solution for parsing and displaying ePub documents on the iPhone. It's part of his TouchCode open source repository.
