 +====== Central TeXLive distributions ======
 +
 +If you are using TeXLive on your linux workstations you may use texlive-full portable installed in:
 +
 +  /opt/texlive
 +  
 +There are folders for several years backward up to the latest distribution.
 +
 +In order to use the shared TeX binaries from the command line, you may want to add the following line to your .bashrc:
 +
 +  export PATH=/opt/texlive/2018/bin/x86_64-linux/:$PATH
 +
 +=== Texstudio ===
 +You may use {{ :latex:texlive-portable2018-full.zip |this}} config file for setting up **texstudio** to use version from 2018.

 +====== pdf-a verification of theses ====== 
 +All theses submitted at the Charles University must be in the pdf-a format, 
 +following a specific set of requirements defined by a university profile. 
 +`/lnet/ms/projects/verapdf/checkpdf` in the ufal internal network is a wrapper for the verapdf tool which you can use to check whether your thesis fulfills these requirements. New university profiles appear regularly at   
 +https://cuni.cz/UK-7987.html , so don't rely on the default. 
 + 
 +[[vernerova@ufal.mff.cuni.cz|Anša's]] experience: 
 +I used Eda's LaTeX template (send me an e-mail if you want to get it) and no amount of tweaking would give me a valid pdf-a, even though I was using  
 +    \usepackage[a-2u]{pdfx} 
 +and compiling with a wrapper script containing the line  
 +    LC_ALL=cs_CZ.UTF-8 xelatex -shell-escape -output-driver="xdvipdfmx -z 0" -synctex=1 "$@" 
 +I sent my pdf file to [[https://www.mff.cuni.cz/cs/fakulta/organizacni-struktura/lide?hdl=2684|Petra Hoffmannová from the library]], who ran my pdf file through Adobe Acrobat (the library has a commercial licence)... and voilà, it was a valid pdf-a. Unlike verapdf, Acrobat also gives a detailed summary of the exact issues with your file (like which piece of text in which image fails the validation).
