Have you tried transferring the PDF attachment to a PDF reader, such as iBooks. The iPad's Mail app can only handle very basic PDF attachments, whereas dedicated PDF reader app has much greater capabilities.

Glad to hear. The Mail app has very limited PDF capabilities - it's really intended as a 'preview', nothing more.

Have a great day.
