Hi Chris,

Pages has options to control whether images (even large, full-page images) are 
in-line and move with the text (in which case they *will* be pushed forward), 
or are attached to the page. Basically, if you want it to be in-line, make sure 
there's a flashing insertion point before you insert the PDF.

Cheers,

- DJA
