public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, DocumentException {
    // step 1

    PdfWriter writer
        = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream(RESULT));

    document.add(new Paragraph("This page will NOT be followed by a blank page!"));
    document.newPage();
    // we don't add anything to this page: newPage() will be ignored
    document.newPage();
    document.add(new Paragraph("This page will be followed by a blank page!"));
    document.newPage();
    writer.setPageEmpty(false);
    document.newPage();
