Word 2007 lets you add a new page with a few clicks.

Adding a page lets you begin a new section or add information anywhere in a document. Especially in a large project, adding a new page can help you incorporate an extra section, include visuals, insert addenda or create a visual separation between sections. Although you could add a new page by pressing "Enter" on your keyboard until you reach the next page, this slow process can become tedious. Word 2007 offers a simpler option.
