How to Add a Blank Page to a PDF or Start a New One

Published 5 November 2026

A blank page is useful as a cover, a divider, a notes page or the start of a new document. Here is how to add one without any extra software.

Add a blank page to a PDF

1. Open EditPDFFree and add your PDF.
2. Click Blank page in the top bar. An empty A4 page is added at the end.
3. Use the up arrow above it to move it to the position you want.
4. Click Download PDF.

Write on the blank page

Choose Add text and click on the page. Type a title, a note or a heading. Adjust the size, font and color to match the rest of the file. You can also add an image or logo, draw, or highlight on it.

Start a new PDF from nothing

You do not need to open a file first.

1. Open the editor.
2. Click Blank page. This creates a one-page document.
3. Add text, images and drawings.
4. Click Blank page again for more pages, or Add PDF to bring in pages from other files.
5. Download the result.

Useful ideas

• Cover page: add a title, your name and the date, then move the page to the front.
• Section divider: a page with just a heading between chapters.
• Notes page: a blank sheet at the end for handwriting after printing.
• Attachment list: a page that lists the documents you attached.

Page size

The blank page is A4 size, which is the usual size for documents in most countries. If you need a different size, add a page from an existing PDF that has the size you want.

Combine with other tools

Blank pages work well with merging PDFs and reordering pages.
