You should be able to File > Open the PDF in Illustrator instead of placing it.

Hello @Rachel27710201gxfh,

Could you share a sample PDF file along with a brief screen recording of your exact workflow and the problem, so we can try to replicate this behaviour on our end?

Looking forward to hearing from you.
