Tell them to use GoodReader. It's $0.99.
Had the same issue importing some PDFs into Pages and iPDF.
PM me a link and I'll check one out for you.

Goodreader. Arguably the best PDF app for iPad.
I have an iPhone 3G, am going to get an iPad 3G next week and am certainly going to upgrade to the new iPhone when it comes out, but seriously; stuff like this is why I really detest Apple. The whole purpose of .pdfs is that they are a truly universal format. To read that the iPad is having issues displaying them properly is a black mark on Apple.
I think I also read that the iPad is having issues opening/displaying .docx files - any truth to this?
Crap like this makes me hate Apple so much. They are doing this on purpose.

I hate to agree
I hate to agree but it's true. Apple and adobe do not play well together
My iPhone has never had issues with pdf, they work great on it, but that doesn't mean it's a good relationship.

I would be surprised, and disappointed, if it was exclusively ePub-only.
The books app will probably only use ePub.
But there are a bunch of apps which allow you to read PDFs.
It's not like the Kindle.

The iBooks app has been updated recently to read PDFs. Even has a separate "book shelf" for your PDFs. No need for any other 3rd party apps.

I find GoodReader is better at displaying PDFs than iBooks, better even than Docs to Go.
Anyone know of a PDF editor that works on iPad please? Not just for adding highlighting and notes to a PDF - I need to modify the existing text in a PDF.
Alternatively, is there a converter from PDF to DOC for the Mac please?
