When rendering my .Rmd file as a pdf the heading for "Author Note" is the last line of the cover page, with the text then starting on p2. Where do I go to insert a \newpage
command? Or is there a better way to force the "author note to start on p. 2?
As mentioned here you could put it in the note
field of the YAML front matter:
note: "\newpage"
If you also have a note text try
note: |
This is my note.
\newpage
