+<h1>Credits</h1>
+
+PDFminion uses numerous open-source libraries, and wish to thank the maintainers of the following projects:
+
+
+* Horst Rutter for [pdfcpu](https://pdfcpu.io/), all things related to PDF processing.
+* Hao Ding for [go-locale](https://github.com/Xuanwo/go-locale) to handle tricky locale settings.
+
+* and, of course, the [Go team](https://golang.org/) for creating the language that compiles to various operating systems,
+    and refrains from adding fancy features every 6 month (pun intended).
