    To test whether they really disappeared, use a computer's browser and log into icloud.com.  Look at the iWorks page.  If no files appear in the Pages tab, then they were deleted in some way (usually "user error").  If there, you should be able to download them to a computer.

    It does not help that with the update to iOS 7.0.3 there was no warning that iWork was now pages BETA and all of the former documents are gone from icloud. Have you people lost your sense? At least a warning would have been appreciated. I knew it was a mistake to move over to an iOS house. If there is not a remedy soon, I will spend every available dollar in my bank account to switch everything back to Windows: Computers, tablets, laptops. It astounds me that apple would even make this large of a change without warning its customers.
