 Il progetto e pensato per essere trasformato in un eseguibile Windows con PyInstaller.
 
-Da valutare:
+Script disponibile:
+
+```powershell
+.\build_exe.ps1 -Clean
+```
+
+Lo script:
+
+- installa le dipendenze Python;
+- installa/aggiorna PyInstaller;
+- include lo splash screen `assets/splash.png`;
+- crea un eseguibile Windows `dist\ZipBundler.exe`;
+- prova a includere Ghostscript se trova `gswin64c`, `gswin32c` o `gs` nel PATH.
+
+Lo splash screen riporta `ZipBundler`, `versione 1.0` e `ai.teamstudio.it`.
+
+Componenti inclusi o gestiti:
+
+- CustomTkinter, Pillow e PyMuPDF vengono inclusi da PyInstaller come dipendenze Python;
+- Ghostscript viene incluso se rilevato in fase di build;
+- Microsoft Office non viene incluso: la conversione Office -> PDF usa Office COM e richiede Office installato sul PC di destinazione.
+
+Da valutare in futuro:
 
-- inclusione o rilevamento esterno di Ghostscript;
 - gestione piu esplicita di `pywin32`;
 - eventuale icona applicativa;
 - firma dell'eseguibile, se necessaria in ambiente aziendale.
