What does that mean? The LaTeX source?
The typeset article is what you'd see if you download the .pdf from, e.g., Nature. .
It's the manuscript with all the stuff that distinguishes an article from one journal to another (where is the abstract, what font type, is there a divider between some sections, etc.). Articles that have not been typeset yet can be seen from Arxiv, for example this one: https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.04391
So basically the article you are allowed to release can have its typesetting - it just can't have the journal's preamble/theme?
If I understand you correctly: Yes, the article can have a typesetting like whatever you get out-of-the-box from Latex and that article can then be published anywhere. What is typically not allowed is to openly publish the article that have been typeset by the journal where you've sent in your article. This is probably what you mean by "preamble/theme"
Yup that's what I mean.
Seems like a reasonable limitation then (not that the entire business model of scientific journals is reasonable in the 21st century is reasonable - just this specific limitation). The journal's theme is proprietary, but the paper's authors still have the LaTeX source so they can just slap a free preamble on it and publish it with that.
