Thank you so much for your help! Of course you’re right it’s opening it in chrome when it should be downloading. Unfortunately it’s iPad chrome and those settings don’t seem to be available. Seems like I can still drag the files into iBooks though and read them there which is a bit of an annoying extra step as it keeps failing but better than nothing. One of the books was a zip file which worked properly as obviously chrome can’t open zips.
Mystery as to why safari doesn’t show the arrows, it’s the latest OS. I’m surprised nobody else has had a problem, surely people are mostly reading on tablets?

Unfortunately I can't really offer much help with your iPad since I've never used one. In regards to Chrome, what you're describing means your default file association for PDF/EPUB is set to open rather than save. In Chrome go to Settings > Advanced (at the bottom) > Site Settings (in Privacy and security) > PDF Documents, and set it to Download them instead of opening.
If that doesn't work it could be that you have a PDF viewer plugin that is overriding it. Type 'chrome://extensions/' (without ' ' ) in your URL bar and either configure any PDF viewer (such as Adobe Reader) to not open by default, or disable the plugin entirely. I hope that helps, let me know if it doesn't.
