To transfer a PDF to an iPad, you have a few options:

  1. AirDrop (if you use a Mac)

Turn on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on both devices.

Right-click the PDF on your Mac and choose Share > AirDrop.

Select your iPad and accept the file.

Save it in the Files app or open it with Books.

  1. Use iCloud Drive

Upload the PDF to iCloud Drive from your computer.

Open the Files app on your iPad.

Find the PDF and open or save it.

  1. Send it by email

Email the PDF to yourself.

Open the email on your iPad.

Tap the file and choose Save to Files.

  1. Transfer from a computer with a USB cable

Connect your iPad to your computer.

Use Finder (Mac) or iTunes/other file management tools (Windows) to move the PDF.

If you regularly transfer lots of PDFs or other files, a tool like iReaShare iPhone Manager can be useful. It lets you manage iPad files directly from your computer and transfer documents without uploading everything to the cloud.

For just a single PDF, AirDrop or iCloud is probably the easiest. For moving many files, a file manager is usually more convenient.
