I was under the impression the source authors publish to arxiv was a latex file

Ah, thanks for clarifying!

I looked up the submission formats, and it looks like if you authored the paper in TeX/LaTeX, they do not accept pre-rendered versions of the document.

But if you did not author it in TeX/LaTeX (e.g., Word, Google Docs, etc.) it appears you can upload a PDF or HTML yourself.

But it's still a single source of truth. Only one document is submitted. So for works submitted as HTML no PDF or LaTeX version is available.
