+# TG2PDF
+This telegram bot converts any libreoffice-supported document into a pdf file.
+It uses [pyrogram](https://docs.pyrogram.org/), [libreoffice](https://libreoffice.org) and optionally [unoserver](https://github.com/unoconv/unoserver).
+The unoserver dependency is entirely optional - however it improves theoretical processing speed, so its included into Dockerfile by default.
+
+# Quickstart
+```console
+git clone https://git.darkn.space/neko/tg2pdf.git
+cd tg2pdf
+podman build -t tg2pdf .
+podman run --name tg2pdf -d tg2pdf:latest
+```
