+# File converters
+
+ConvertX for server-side conversion and BentoPDF for PDF tools.
+
+ConvertX persists files in `convertx-pvc`; BentoPDF has no persistent volume.
+Kubernetes configuration includes a local `config.yaml.example`, excluded from
+normal deployment. Copy and apply the real ConfigMap separately where required.
+
+Compose publishes ConvertX on host port 9992 as well as attaching it to the
+proxy network. Replace the authentication settings from `.env.example` before
+exposing it outside the lab.
+
+## Inspect
+
+From the repository root:
+
+```sh
+kubectl get pods,svc,pvc -n converters
+kubectl get events -n converters --sort-by=.metadata.creationTimestamp
+```
