+## Google Chrome/Chromium Setup <a id="installation-chrome-setup"></a>
+
+The module needs Google Chrome or Chromium supporting headless mode.
+
+### RHEL/CentOS <a id="installation-chrome-setup-rhel"></a>
+
+Add the Chrome repository from Google to yum, next to EPEL.
+
+```
+yum -y install epel-release
+
+cat >/etc/yum.repos.d/google-chrome-stable.repo <<EOF
+[google-chrome-stable]
+name=google-chrome-stable
+baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/\$basearch
+enabled=1
+gpgcheck=1
+gpgkey=https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub
+EOF
+
+yum makecache
+```
+
+Install Chrome and additional dependencies (optional).
+
+```
+yum install google-chrome-stable
+yum install mesa-libOSMesa mesa-libOSMesa-devel gnu-free-sans-fonts ipa-gothic-fonts ipa-pgothic-fonts
+```
+
+### Debian/Ubuntu <a id="installation-chrome-setup-rhel"></a>
+
+Add the Chrome repository from Google to apt.
+
+```
+apt-get -y install apt-transport-https gnupg wget
+
+wget -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add -
+
+echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list
+
+apt-get update
+```
+
+Install Chrome.
+
+```
+apt-get install google-chrome-stable
+```
+
+## Module Installation <a id="installation-module"></a>
+
+1. Install it [like any other module](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web-2/latest/doc/08-Modules/#installation).
+Use `pdfexport` as name.
+
+2. You might need to set the absolute path to the Google Chrome / Chromium
+binary, depending on your system. This can be done in
+`Configuration -> Modules -> pdfexport -> Chrome`
+
+This concludes the installation. PDF exports now use Google Chrome/Chromium for rendering.
+
+### Using a Remote Chrome/Chromium
+
+As an alternative to a local installation of Chrome/Chromium it is also possible
+to launch and utilize a remote instance.
+
+Just install it as described above on a different machine and configure its connection
+details in `Configuration -> Modules -> pdfexport -> Chrome`.
+
+To start a remote instance of Chrome/Chromium use the following commandline options:
+
+> google-chrome --remote-debugging-address=0.0.0.0 --remote-debugging-port=9222 --headless --keep-alive-for-test --disable-gpu --disable-dev-shm-usage --no-sandbox --bwsi --no-first-run --user-data-dir=/tmp --homedir=/tmp
+
+Note that the browser does accept any and all connection attempts without any authentication.
+Keep that in mind and let it listen on a public IP (or even on 0.0.0.0) only during tests or
+with a proper firewall in place.
