Copy and Paste Problem
When I copy and paste graphics from one Pages document to another, why can't I move the objects? 3 handles are black and 5 are blue.

Because you have pasted the graphics inline ie in the actual text.
Either click outside the text margin before pasting
or
Select graphic > Inspector > Wrap > Object Placement > Floating

Thanks Peter. Shortly after posting I found a button in the bar where I could choose "Inline" or "Floating". Floating fixed it.
Many thanks.
Elk,
There is a way to predetermine the Inline/Floating attribute so you don't have to go in and change it after pasting.
Prior to the Paste, Click in the text where you would want an Inline Object to go. Prior to the Paste, Command-Click in the Margin if you want the Pasted Object to be Floating.
