I use it all the time to spool job listings, assembly listing, etc for various 
reasons.
Don't have a problem with it at all.

Unfortunately, I had nothing to do with the current installation so I don't 
know if there were ever any problems with multi page PDFs.

Actually Leland Lucius Is the author of TXT2PDF.
I use it all the time also and currently running; v09.336

I may have the same problem as you, if the DD:REPORT points to a DUMMY file, I 
would only get 1 page also with the first image, but if I pointed REPORT to a 
data set that would produce multiple pages, it printed the first image on the 
first page and then the second on the second page.

On the IMAGE command, there is one more parm after the PAGE#, which is how many 
pages after the page to put the image on, a 0 (zero) value will put it on one 
page.
My config input looked like this:

CONFIRM V
MSGID Y

OUT DOC.IVP$DOC.PDF

We used to regularly generate multi-page pdf attachments.

Do you have enough text data supplied to txtpdf for text to need to flow
to a 2nd page with given margins and font?  If not, I wouldn't expect a
2nd page even though  you have defined a different appearance for it.  
I never experimented with multiple page formats within the same
multi-page pdf, so can't speak from direct experience.

Is the imbedded space shown in draw/ page acceptable?  The last
txt2pdf manual I had doesn't make it clear that this is permitted syntax.
