Line break for multiple authors in RMarkdown

  • 772

I want to make a PDF document in RMarkdown with multiple authors, so for the cover:

---
title: "Ejercicio 2 pregunta 2"
author: 
- "Perfidio "  
- "Franegan"
- "Efren"
- "PJkalamity13"
date: "27/09/2020"
output: pdf_document
---

However, this way puts all authors on the same line.

How can I put each author on each line?

    In the problems page of the rmarkdown cderv package repository it gives this solution

    ---
title: "Ejercicio 2 pregunta 2"
author: 
- "Perfidio "  
- "Franegan"
- "Efren"
- "PJkalamity13"
date: "27/09/2020"
output: pdf_document
header-includes:
  - \renewcommand{\and}{\\}
---

    The author mentions that this can help as long as you don't use the command \andelsewhere in the document.
