How to generate PostScript files? #403

Open 11r opened 10 years ago

11r commented 10 years ago

Hi there,

I am preparing my transaction manuscript. However the the upload system does not accept PDF files nor TEX files, only restricting to .PS, .DOC, .RTF. Googling did not help. TeXShop does not generate PS file either.

Any ideas? At this point I wonder why IEEE provides LaTeX templates while does not accept PDF and TEX uploading.

LaTeXTools doesn't properly support generating ps files, but you can fake it by using the ScriptBuilder (which is in the v3.6.2 release). See the README for most of the details, but you could setup something like this:

"script_builder": [
    "latex -interaction=nonstopmode",
    "dvips $file_base_name.dvi",
    "dvipdf $file_base_name.dvi"
]

This generates a pdf file at the end (which LaTeXTools still requires) but also creates a ps file as a sort of side effect.
