Description

Hi,

So some time ago I asked this same thing in bookdown's Github, but maybe it makes more sense here. Most Journals require to upload a zip file with all the LaTeX sources in int, so I would like that rticles templates make this. Probably each template has a list of the files it has to use. It would be needed to add the bib files and the image files too.

Thank you!! Rstudio software is awesome!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the rticles templates and how each template currently tracks its LaTeX, bibliography, and image dependencies. Determine how a generated article could collect those files into a journal-uploadable zip, then verify that the archive contains all required LaTeX sources, .bib files, and images for each template.
