Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:

  • A basic knowledge of the C# programming language
  • Aspose.PDF for .NET installed in your development environment

Step 1: Define the document directory

First, you need to set the path to your documents directory. This is the location where you have your original PDF file and where you want to save the modified PDF file. Replace “YOUR DOCUMENTS DIRECTORY” with the appropriate path.

string dataDir = "YOUR DOCUMENTS DIRECTORY";

Step 2: Open the PDF document

Then you can open the PDF document using the Document class of Aspose.PDF. Be sure to specify the correct path to the original PDF document.

Document pdfDocument1 = new Document(dataDir + "InsertEmptyPageAtEnd.pdf");

Step 3: Insert an empty page

Now you can insert a blank page at the end of the PDF document using the Add() method of the Pages property of the pdfDocument1 object.

pdfDocument1.Pages.Add();

Step 4: Save the modified document

Finally, you can save the modified PDF document to a file using the Save() method of the Document class. Be sure to specify the correct path and filename for the output file.

dataDir = dataDir + "InsertEmptyPageAtEnd_out.pdf";
pdfDocument1.Save(dataDir);
