Hello.

Is there a way to *automatically* place a blank page (or other PDF page) into a PDF document? I am looking for a solution to placing a PDF page after every page in an existing PDF document, without having to do it manually.

Hello Mike

This can be done with AppleScript.
A very basic script which insert pages will look like:
(This one is not exactly what you asked for , but a first step)

tell application "Acrobat"
activate
open file "Macintosh HD:Files:DocumentName.pdf"
open file "Macintosh HD:Files:MyOtherDocument.pdf"
insert pages document "DocumentName.pdf" after 1 from document "MyOtherDocument.pdf" starting with 1 number of pages 4
end tell

What you need is a Script Editor (Comes with OSX) and some basic knowledge
In Apple Script which is (IMHO) not complicated and very powerful.

Thanks Barak.

I was hoping to learn of a plug-in or some other solution, but I'll give the AppleScript a try.
