How are Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft 365 so slow compared to other apps? Just watch the video. Also is there a PDF viewer with Horizontal scrolling and option to never remember file opening history?

Secure PDF Viewer. FOSS. The Simple Rick of PDF viewers. Reads PDFs and doesn't spy on you. At the time of this writing, printing PDFs with this app is a bit awkward. You have to use the "Share" button and then scroll down to the printer icon or "send to printer" icon to print the PDFs. MJ PDF Reader also belongs in this slot. FOSS. Printing PDFs is simpler and easier with this app.

You could try installing Material files in both profiles. It's also on fdroid. Set up the ftp server, choose what folders you want to share, in one profile and then connect to it in the other profile.

I use Filezilla and Material Files to transfer large / multiple files via ftp. Otherwise Neardrop works great for quick file sharing.

I think you'd like Amaze and Material Files. They both don't have an option for webdav though.
