Question

When using an iPad to fill out a form, the screen will jump to part of the page hiding the cursor. Let's say I select a form field at the top of the page, the iPad zooms to the bottom of the page. I select a field at the bottom of the page and it zooms to the top. I just want to be able to see the form field that I'm typing into.

Do you know what PDF viewer you're using to open the PDF on your iPad?

I'm using the mark up viewer, not sure what it's called, It's just the viewr built into Apple's iPad. I open the pdf, hit the square box with the arrow like I'm going to send it and then select it jumps to the bottom of screen. See video link and file.

It's hard to say what's wrong. You might want to try asking in a forum devoted to Apple products and/or consider using a differnt PDF viewer, one that has better support for PDF forms.
