How to close a document in pages on iPad

On an iPad running iPad OS18 I can't find how to close a document without deleting it. Closing Pages means that when I reopen it the same document reopens.

iPad mini 6, iPadOS 17

iPad Pages docs in settings but not in app? Hi I cannot find a number of important pages documents on my iPad I’ve tried looking in the iCloud but can only find generic sample documents not any of the ones which have involved months of work. When I go into settings - press General then select Pages I can see a list of the documents I need access to. The only cation I can then take is to press EDIT and I am not sure what to do next as EDIT seems to just mean delete. Really hope someone can help! thanks in advance

Deleting an empty page in Pages app in iPad This should be super easy. Go to thumbnail pages, tap on the empty page, tap delete or cut. But I am encountering an issue (a bug perhaps). When I tap on the empty page, and tap delete, it generates a prompt Remove all content? All content in your document will be removed and replaced with an empty page. Then you tap Cancel or Remove. Regardless of whether I tap remove or click delete on the keyboard, it does delete ALL contents within the entire document instead of just deleting that one single empty page. My iOS is 16.7.2 This is so super annoying. If you can please help. Thank you in advance.
