Pages can export to PDF, and you can drag/drop single-page PDF back onto a Pages document — as a positional document object. That is all that Pages can do with a PDF.


If you want to read, or annotate a PDF, then use Apple's Preview application, or Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. If you want to edit a PDF (change its original content), then you need to purchase a PDF editor from the Mac App Store, or Adobe. Apple does not include a PDF editor with macOS.
