# 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.
