Many programs, though not all, do just exactly that, scroll half a page
when pgup or pgdown is pressed. When not in reading mode, reader forces
the screen to contain the "Single Page" so it simply cannot, in that
mode, display the bottom half of one page and the top half of the next.
In reading mode, this is allowed, and pgup/pgdn is then able to scroll
to the half page.

In evince, the gnome default pdf viewer, reading mode is known as
"continuous" (a checkbox in the view menu), but there the pgup and pgdn
still scroll an entire page at a time. Maybe you just want to use
evince?
