Insert Blank Pages
how to insert a blank page after every other page in ADOBE ACROBAT 9
The easiest way to do this is print a Word blank document to PDF and name it blank.pdf. Whenever you need a blank page inserted in your existing PDF document, you could just insert this blank.pdf document as many times as you need accordingly.

need to add the blank pages in a 200 page document..... it should be an easier way to batch insert the blank pages
Try this batch processing script in Acrobat. I tested it with a 16-page PDF document and it worked for me.
Change XXX in the code to the number of pages you have in your document times two. For me, I had a 16-page document, so that portion of the code for me was pg<=32 and it tested nicely. Also, change blank.pdf to whatever you named your blank page PDF document. Keep the source PDF file and the blank page PDF in the same folder/directory.
for (pg = 0; pg<=XXX; pg=pg+2)
{
this.insertPages({nPage:pg,
cPath:"blank.pdf"
});
}

So, how'd it all go for you?
