Singularity: Did You Bring Enough to Share with the Class?

Motivation

I wanted to use singularity for my own selfish purposes; when presenting my research I want it to be easy for someone else to try.

Installing Singularity

The Easy Way

sudo apt install singularity.

Tricks to embed fonts inside pdfs for paper submissions
#!/bin/bash
# Embed fonts in pdf files. This may be needed for R graphics.
# You can check if fonts are embedded using pdffonts (on mac, xpdf-pdffonts); check the emb column
mkdir -p unembedded
cp *.pdf unembedded/
for f in unembedded/*; do
gs -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -dEmbedAllFonts=true -sOutputFile=$(basename $f) -f $f
done
# Other things you may need to do to pass the IEEE pdf eXpress (pdf-express.org)

set -e

echo "usage: dedupe.sh <dir>"
exit 2
