Details
Allows the author of Rmd to docx documents to insert a vertical white space of specified height, particularly useful in creating documents that users are expected to write in, such as workshop or student lab materials.
The dimensions of the gap are determined when it is printed, e.g., using knitr in an R Markdown script, the box height in inches is set with the fig.height code chunk option.
