There's a syncthing wrapper for iOS (Möbius Sync), which is free up to 20 MB of synced files. The unlimited version only costs $5 once, so might be worth it.
Otherwise I'm sure there's ways to set a network fileshare on your PC, that you can access from your iPad (if you only need it in LAN).
Thanks! I am trying it out, and it is working great so far!
Syncthing is probably the best option. It'll keep a copy on both devices, and can sync any changes made on any device. It's a direct connection, no intermediary server required.
Another way, which is a bit round-about, but surprisingly easy: Install Zim Desktop Wiki (a notebook app), enable its built-in web server, and add your PDF to the Zim notebook. From the iPad use the web browser to open your Zim notebook (Assuming both are on the same wi-fi). This is read-only from the iPad, can't make changes.
I use a home NAS for this, accessing the files from both devices. maybe that could work for you.
Use syncthing, there is some unofficial app on the iPad for it and the official one on Linux.
Dolphin (and I'm sure other file browsers) has a couple sync plugins. Like gdrive, mega, idrive and a few other.
Im using resilio sync and secure shell fish.
