Added documentation.

+# LaTeX poster template
+This repository provides a LaTeX template for LUMC styled posters.
+
+## Installation
+Install all dependencies:
+
+    apt-get install texlive-base-bin texlive-latex-base \
+      texlive-latex-recommended texlive-latex-extra texlive-fonts-recommended \
+      texlive-science latex-beamer ghostscript graphviz
+
+## Making a new poster
+Add this repository as a submodule of your project:
+
+    git submodule add https://git.lumc.nl/j.f.j.laros/poster.git
+
+You also might want to use the central pictures repository:
+
+    git submodule add https://git.lumc.nl/humgen/presentation-pics.git
+
+Make a new poster using the following command:
+
+    cd poster
+    bash mkposter.sh ../myposter
+
+## Usage
+The poster is compiled with a Makefile.
+
+    make
+
+To clean everything, except for output files and important temporary files
+(bibliography, glossary, encapsulated postscript files):
+
+    make clean
+
+To clean everything including temporary files:
+
+    make distclean
+
+### Pictures
+Using pictures is relatively straightforward. Every file in the current
+directory with file extension **dot**, **gif**, **jpg**, **png**, **ppm**,
+**svg**, **xcf**, or **dia** will be automatically converted to encapsulated
+postscript.
+
+Gnuplot files (with extension **gnp**) are converted to encapsulated postscript
+as well.
