Never heard of this. Does it have access to the LaTeX source of the arXiv paper? I didn't know arXiv hosted sources.

Depends what the authors upload. You can just upload a PDF. But if arXiv detects that the PDF came out of pdflatex it will pretty instantly nag you to give it the TeX sources. It will then render the PDF itself and also offer the sources for download. That is also how astro-ph-leaks [1] works.

Oh, wow. Had never heard of astro-ph-leaks. That is the best.
