<![CDATA[Produce-zero-paged report]]>Hi,

Due to the complexity of my report, I am pretty much entirely building it through a series of pdf utils through the afterRender on my main template. The main template may or may not produce content depending on some variables. If I produce no content then I don't want to render a page and then I would just keep appending more sections in afterRender. Can I make a template not produce a page? Alternatively, if I can delete a page in 'res' in afterRender that would also do the job. - is this possible?

please elaborate more on your use case so we can discuss the solution.

If the main template shouldn't produce a page/content, you can in afterRender of main just skip the res.content and instead start appending from the first template you want to append. Something wrong with this?
