Thanks for the help, Kovid. You are correct. The problem was with my iPad and large files, not the server. Below are some tips that may help others with the same problem.

When transferring large (~200MB and larger) PDF files from Calibre server to iPad:
* Disable Zero Copy Transfers at the server (as Kovid explains above).
* Empty the cache of whatever browser you use.
* Have patience. And, even when the transfer seems complete, you may have to wait a minute before the "Share" button is responsive, and wait a bit more until the "Copy to Adobe Acrobat" button will respond and copy your PDF into Acrobat.
