As a fix, I copied the file and pasted it into Pages '09 (version 4.0.3). Spent considerable time repaired all the deletions, reformatted and moved to GoodReader and am now able to read it.

I had forgot why I didn't do that…
I moved a coupla files to the Pages app a half hour ago and Synced.

Still waiting for them to appear.

iPad Pages is the latest, version 2.0.1.

In the meantime I updated a file to GoodReaded and was able to read it immediately
