Pretty sure Pages doesn't support PDFs.

But there are a lot of Apps that do, like the 99cent Goodreader app mentioned above. That you can drag and drop PDFs to in iTunes when the iPad is hooked up, and they instantly appear on your iPad (don't have to synch).

You can also load a PDF in Safari, then type a "g" in front of the whole web address and it will download it into Goodreader.

It's not as easy as it should be (would love straight drag and drop without iTunes, but that won't happen with Apple products) but it's still pretty easy and PDFs look great on the Ipad.
