make-paper-tarball is a script that prepares an academic paper manuscript for submission. It performs the following tasks: Check that the manuscript can be compiled. Identify source files (e.g. figures, bibliography) and copy them to a temporary directory. Rename graphic files after the number of the figure/table that includes them, e.g. figure-1.png. Check that figures and tables are cited in order. Insert LaTeX files included by \input directly into the main LaTeX file. Insert code listings included by \lstinputlisting directly into the main LaTeX file. Insert BibTeX-generated bibliography directly into the main LaTeX file. Strip out comments. Copy auxiliary files to the tarball. Create an archive containing only the the main LaTeX file, required source files, and specified auxiliary files.
