Adding a new page in PDF using itext 7

Question

I'm trying to create a PDF Document using iText 7 with below code and my PDF documents contents are overlapping in same page when generated.(i.e in Page 1).

I see the

document.newPage();

method is missing in iText 7. How can i add pages to my PDF document without using pdfDocumet.copyPages(...) or PDFmerger in itext 7.

        PdfDocument pdfDoc = new PdfDocument(new PdfWriter(dest));      
        pdfDoc.addNewPage();
        Document PageOnedocument = new Document(pdfDoc,PageSize.A4);            
        addPageOneContents(PageOnedocument);  


        pdfDoc.addNewPage();
        Document PageTwodocument = new Document(pdfDoc,PageSize.A4);            
        addPageTwoContents(PageTwodocument);  

        pdfDoc.close();
        PageOnedocument.close();
        PageTwodocument.close();

Solution

In iText 7 the newPage method has become a special case of an area break:

Document document = ...;
[....add some content...]
document.add(new AreaBreak(AreaBreakType.NEXT_PAGE));
[...add some content on next page...]

Is this documented somewhere?

@AllirionX In itextpdf.com/en/resources/books/itext-7-building-blocks/… - but it is a bit hidden among more complex AreaBreak usages.

Thanks! It's very useful, I was getting mad trying to add a simple paragraph to a new page.
