NAME
latexpand - Flatten LaTeX file by expanding \include and \input, ... and
remove comments
SYNOPSIS
latexpand [options] FILE...
Options:
--verbose show what's going on
--keep-comments don't strip comments (comments are lines
starting with %, and anything below
\end{document})
--empty-comments keep empty comments (i.e. % at end of lines) for clarity
--keep-includes don't expand \input and \include directives
--expand-usepackage
Expand \usepackage{...} directives if the
corresponding .sty file is found in
$TEXINPUTS
--expand-bbl FILE
Expand the bibliography by inlining FILE
(should be a *.bbl file)
--help this help message
--output <file>, -o <file>
generate output in <file>
--explain generate explanatory comments in output
--show-graphics show included graphics
--graphics_extensions
colon-separated list of possible graphics extensions
(used by --show-graphics to find the actual graphics files)
USES
The most common use of latexpand is to simplify distribution of source
LaTeX files, typically to satisfy the requirement of editors and
archival sites (springer, arXiv.org, ...) who force the authors to
submit sources. One does not necessarily want to submit sources with
comments, and uploading a document made of several files including each
other is a bit painful. By default, latexpand answers both problems by
outputing a single LaTeX file that contain no comment.
GETTING LATEXPAND
The latest version of latexpand is available here:

Versions are uploaded to ctan.org from time to time:

BUGS
Please, report bugs to Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr>.
Known bugs
latexpand currently ignores \begin{verbatim} ... \end{verbatim}, and
will therefore process any \include, \input, ... directives that appear
within verbatim environments (while it shouldn't).
It would be nice to remove code between \begin{comment} and
\end{comment} too if \usepackage{comment} is used.
