ggsave append new pages to pdf

[wbvguo]

Hi,

I want to use ggsave to save multiple plots into a single pdf file (a plot per page, and the size of each plot can be adjusted individually). Currently, ggsave don't allow appending new pages, instead, it will overwrite if the file already exists. Is it possible to add an option append=TRUE/FALSE to ggsave when the device is set to be "pdf"?

For example:

ggsave(filename = "test.pdf", plot = p1, device = "pdf", width = 8, height = 6)
ggsave(filename = "test.pdf", plot = p2, device = "pdf", width = 10, height = 10, append= TRUE)

Thanks,

Hi Wenbin,

It seems people agree with you: there is already a feature request to saved to paged pdf in #5093.
We'd like to keep all discussion in a single place, so I'm gonna close this issue, and we can continue discussion over there.
