In my combined file what I type on one page changes the text on a previous page.

Question

I downloaded a job application that has only one page available for previous work experience. I combined my completed application with an additional page three with different work  information on it. After it was combined and I tried to edit the application, the information on the original page three was changed to the information I entered on the added page three. How do I get the page I added in the combined file to be an individual page four that I can enter data on and not change what I have on page three. I can't even figure out how to change the page numbers before I actually combine the documents into a new document.

Are you entering the text into a text field? If so, there's probably another field with the same name on the other page, which means it will automatically have the same value as the one you're editing.

Don't know if it's relevant to you, but for the benefit of people reading this in the future I'll add a little more. Adding more pages is strongly advised against, for instance this page says "most hiring managers I know would automatically disqualify you for doing so!".
