The

target outputs a very plain file without any styling. It is nice when the preprint version of a paper has similar formatting to the published version.There have been requests and discussions concerning a smooth way to do this:
Some issues were raised, the biggest one being possible confusion about the publication status of a preprint. (See for example openjournals/joss#132 (comment) and openjournals/joss#132 (comment).)
In this PR I have configured pandoc to output a LaTeX file somewhat closer to that which would generate the official PDFs. In order to distinguish it from a published article, this style:
Preprint: Prepared for submission to $journal.title$

There are other minor differences in fonts and PDF tags because arxiv.org only supports
pdflatex
, notlualatex
:\pdfvariable omitcidset=*
\setmonofont{Hack}
\usepackage{fontsetup}
Possible issues/room for improvement:

This PR may not be merged here, but I figured I would put the changes out there in case they are useful to someone.
