Translating from the native Phillipian to app requirements, you're
seeking iPadOS Safari and its in-built PDF Preview support to not to
render embedded or linked PDFs as one long, continuous webpage?
If that's what you want, then the Books app (with vertical scrolling
disabled) and the PDF Expert app (select Annotate) can both provide PDF
per-page rendering, and tap-to-advance.
I use the PDF Expert app when what Preview offers for PDF processing is
inadequate, usually only when working with some arcane PDF file, or
with some PDF-based forms file.
iPadOS Books page-scrolling defaults to left and right margin taps for
directional paging, but can be set so that taps to either left or right
margins advance by using Settings > Books.
Books and document synching, I use heavily with PDF files. Which for
folks in the Apple ecosystem, then usually means that the user's Books
library (ePub and PDF files) is either stored on a Mac, and/or is
stored in iCloud.
