+Modify the templates
+--------------------
+
+In most cases, you just need to edit  tex/support/header.tex  and add your logo
+in  tex/support . After you changed it, you might want to run
+
+	$ python schilder.py --recreate-cache
+
+to delete all cached pdf and image thumbnails, then re-run pdflatex on all 
+saved signs. Accessing the webinterface will recreate the rest of the cached 
+image thumbnails.
