The submission is rejected by the arXiv software if generating the final PDF file fails, if any image file is too large, or if the total size of the submission is too large.
The arXiv submission instructions say: Formats for text of submission Your submission to the archive must be in one of the following formats (listed in order of preference): (La)TeX, AMS(La)TeX, PDFLaTeX PDF PostScript HTML with JPEG/PNG/GIF images Our goal is to store articles in formats which are highly portable and stable over time. Currently, the best choice is TeX/LaTeX, because this open format does not hide information. Note that for this and other reasons we will not accept dvi, PS, or PDF created from TeX/LaTeX source. Users of word processors such as Microsoft Word (versions prior to Word 2007) should save their documents as PDF and submit that. Note also that we will not accept scanned documents, regardless of format. None of them says anything about Xe(La)TeX. > -Mike Manthey > > > -------------------------------------------------- > Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: > http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex -- Zdeněk Wagner http://hroch486.icpf.cas.cz/wagner/ http://icebearsoft.euweb.cz -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
