Thanks for the answer Karl.

So I tried and have created a TransformationConnector, extending the 
BaseTransformationConnector and overriding the addOrReplaceWithException 
method. In this method I have two calls to activities.sendDocument(), 
one for the incoming document and another for a fresh new one (not a 
duplicate of the first). The problem is that when it comes to the second 
call, the following exception is thrown : 
"java.lang.IllegalStateException: Document cannot have multiple 
dispositions". It seems like a transformation connector can only output 
1 doc but no more.

Am I missing something ?
