[reportlab-users] Blank space being added to beginning of PDF when using TableOfContents

[Robin Becker]

Hi Robert,

Sorry this is causing you problems.

Does this occur when you reduce the actual content to say 3 pages? Does the size of extra space vary with the number of 
pages?

If a small sample shows the issue then perhaps you could post the code here with content replaced by Lorum Ipsum text. 
There are different ways to produce TOC, but if we can see the overall code structure it might be easy to find any problem.

This increases the length of my document by 1 page, and plays absolute havoc with the TableOfContents itself.
