+1, able to reproduce on my side too. PDF embedding is a fundamental feature, Hope it can be fixed soon.

Same problem here on iPad - however I am able to resize a pdf canvas view to what I want, and then reload the vault to see the full view. Looks like a missing refresh of the pdf rendering.

Looks like the same or similar issue, on a more current version though:

v1.6.3

I am also having the problem. It looks like after inserting the pdf it looks cropped, but then rebooting obsidian seems to fix he problem, until new pdf is inserted.

With v1.6.7, still experiencing this issue.

Closing the canvas tab and reopening is enough to get the PDFs to update, which is better than rebooting Obsidian, but still annoying.

A fresh install of 1.7.5 fixed up my issues for this (e.g. I had to reinstall from .deb file)
