# Add a blank page to a PDF

> Insert blank pages into a PDF in your browser. Add them at the start, the end, or after chosen pages. No upload, no account. Page size is matched.

Insert empty pages on your computer

Add blank page inserts empty pages into a PDF you already have. Put them at the start, at the end, after every page, or after the pages you pick. Each blank page matches the size of the page beside it, so a landscape scan stays landscape. pdf-lib writes the new file in this browser. The original on disk is unchanged.

Use it when a duplex print needs a blank back, a packet needs a notes page, or a chapter should start on a fresh sheet. This is not Remove blank pages, which drops empty scans. Unlock password-protected PDFs on your computer first. Close the tab and the working files are gone.

Free. There is no paid tier. No account. They stay on your computer. Nothing is uploaded.

## How to add a blank page to a PDF

1. Drop one PDF. It is read in this tab, never uploaded.
2. Choose where the blank pages go, and how many at each spot.
3. If you chose selected pages, tick the pages that should be followed by a blank.
4. Add the blank pages and download. The file you dropped stays on disk.

## Add a blank PDF page without uploading

Most “add blank page to pdf” sites take the file and insert the page on a server. This page does it in JavaScript. There is no account and no queue. If it fails, the file never sat on someone else’s disk.

Need to drop empty scans instead? Use [Remove blank pages](https://lovethispdf.com/tools/remove-blank-pages.md).
