Hierarchy and relationship of "pages" to "layers"

I'm feeling very brain dead about the use of pages and layers. I've been away from high design for a couple of years and although I have picked up most of the functionality rapidly, I cannot get back into creating pages and layers.

I took my first drawings to two of the largest blueprint services in town (Atlanta), and all of the type output was replaced with another face and very much distorted with no consistency...
