Details

By default x is converted to a TeX file which can be included in an R Markdown document as include:

   output:
     pdf_document:
       include:
         after_body: appendix.tex

If render_appendix is called form an R Markdown document with a target document type other than a PDF file a Markdown document is created and a warning returned (includes are only supported in PDF documents).

Default chunk options and hooks are set to those used in the R Markdown document from which render_appendix is called; otherwise defaults of md_document are used. It is, therefore, recommended to include render_appendix in your parent document.
