You cannot do that using a UIWebView neither a QLPreviewController. They do what they do and are no customizable. They use a vertical scroll to present pages from a pdf document.

Your only chance is to open PDF with Quartz framework and access to each page, there are good apple tutorials for this topic. Then you can present separate pages as you want in a UIScrollView with a UIPageControl, much better, a UIPageViewController.
