Have you ever typed and gotten to a point where you need to add a fresh page to begin a new section? This often happens when you do not want to mix two different sections when typing, or maybe you want to include a new piece of information on a different page. Sometimes you forget to include some information somewhere in the middle of your document while typing. Will you delete or undo everything so that you can retype again? How do you add a page to your word document when handling such projects?
Imagine a situation where you want to add addenda, visuals, tables, or extra sections to your work. These situations might require you to use a totally new blank page. What will you do? Of course, you can simply press ENTER until you get to a new page. But this can be tedious, time-consuming and slow. There are better solutions to this problem.
How to add a page to word by inserting a blank page
Word features a straightforward function that allows you to insert a blank page anywhere in your document. But before you use it, you need to determine the precise location you want to add a page. There are different procedures if you want to add a blank page in the middle of your work or at the end of your work. However, you will still use the same functions. Here is the process of adding a page to word by inserting a blank page:
First, you need to place the cursor where you want to add a page > navigate to the insert tab and locate the pages panel on the top left side > select blank page. You can add as many pages as you want. Scroll through your work to ascertain that you have added a new page. (image)
How to add a page to word page breaks
When you navigate to the insert tab, you will find several options for adding pages. Apart from inserting a blank page or cover page, there is the option of inserting page breaks. Imagine a situation where you are typing, and you want to do so continuously, but the space is becoming limited for the content you want to add. You can just add a page break.
First, go to the insert tab and select page break. You can click page break several times until you are satisfied with the number of pages added. This way, you won’t have to worry about going back to add more pages. (image)
How to add a page to word automatically without pausing your typing
Did you know that you can add a new page without stopping to use either the blank page or the page break command? This is the simplest method of adding a page to word. All you need to do is continue typing or use the space bar when you get to the end of the page. This, however, applies to adding a page at the end of your work and not in the middle.
