    Adobe breaks apart the functionality I think you're looking for into InDesign. Illustrator is for the illustration piece of life, where InDesign is Adobe's flagship desktop publishing/page layout application. A lot of designers won't bother moving from Illustrator to InDesign for simple one page items, or business cards, etc. but there's no such thing as multiple "pages" in Illustrator without some 3rd party plugin..

    ::searches briefly through bookmarks::

    I read in Adobe User to User Forums about multiple pages use.
    These were thse steps offered:

    1. Go to Document Setup. Make height 22 inches, width 8.

    2. In the Same window, (Document Setup), go to the second section, "View" and turn on the radio button "tile full pages".

    3. Click OK.

    4. When you go to the document, you will see 2 pages stacked vertically. You can add as many pages as you want by changing the height value in "Document Setup".

    I think that's as close as you're going to get without commercial plugins.
