Hello @AnneRoss
I understand you are seeing strange behavior when adding a pdf file to your page. Are you adding by uploading the file from your computer to your course using these steps? Uploading a PDF to a Page in a Course

If you are seeing strange things when uploading, I would try testing on a brand new page. If you are still seeing difficulty, I would suggest reaching out to Canvas Support.
