I bet this is an easy one, but I just can't find a solution!

I just want a single-page empty document, so I can use it with the pdfpages package to insert blank pages into pdf files. The best I could do is

\documentclass[a4paper]{book}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
Don't use this page!
\cleardoublepage
\end{document}

which makes the second page blank. I could use this, but I'll have to remember to insert the second page when using pdfpages.

Hi,

to produce empty pages you could use for instance

\newpage\mbox{}\newpage

or similar with \clearpage.

I use the shorter version
