Adding New Pages in Google Docs

[nerdslife_team]

Adding extra pages to your Google Docs on a computer is a breeze and really helps in keeping your work organized.

Method 1: Using the Keyboard Shortcut

1. Position your cursor exactly where you want the new page to start. This is where the page break will happen.

2. Use the keyboard shortcut CTRL + ENTER and boom! A new page appears, with all the stuff after the cursor now sitting nicely on the new page. This is the quickest and easiest method.

Method 2: Using the Insert Menu

1. Again, place your cursor at the exact spot where you need the new page break.
   

   

2. Head up to the menu bar at the top, and click on “Insert”.
   

   

3. In the dropdown menu, hover over “Break” and a new set of options should appear.
   

   

4. Select “Page break”. You’ll notice the content following the cursor is moved to a fresh page.

Adding a page on the Google Docs mobile app

Need to add a page on your phone or tablet? The Google Docs app has got you covered.

1. Open your document in the Google Docs app, and tap the edit icon (it looks like a pencil) to start editing.
   

   

2. Place the cursor where you want the new page and tap the “+” icon at the top right, which will bring up insertion options.
   

   

3. Scroll through the menu, and select “Page break.” A fresh page will be created and anything after your cursor will be moved to it.
   

   

Adding page breaks this way is helpful for breaking up large documents into more manageable sections and keeping things nice and clear for anyone reading your document.
