PDFs are great for sharing documents to others, but what if you need to add a page (or multiple) to a PDF before you send out the final version of the document?

Maybe you scanned a document to PDF, but forgot a page or messed up the order. Or maybe you received a PDF document from someone else, but realized that a page was missing? 

Missing pages can be extremely frustrating when working with PDFs. Fortunately, there’s a quick fix. With the right tools, you can easily add a page, multiple pages, or entire documents to an existing PDF. 

Read on for the method that works best for you, or watch our helpful video below!
