I downloaded three photos from an SD card to my iPhone with the Apple adapter. Then I wanted them on my iPad. I had deleted them from the
card, so how do I get them onto the iPad (two JPG and one RAW):
AirDrop
DropCopy
Photo Transfer App
iCloud folder
...all change the RAW to JPG and all reduce the image size. Very
frustrating.

Just a bit confused here! If they are currently visible in Photos on your iPhone then they should be visible in Photos on your iPad when
synchronized via iCloud. Of course it is possible to keep image files on iCloud Drive - you would be able to see them and manipulate them using the Files app. If you want to store the image files literally locally on your iPad's internal storage, then a third party solution such as Readdle's Documents app might be worth considering.

Can you not copy them back to the card in the adapter? Photos -> Share
Save to Files, then select the card. Then plug the card into a reader connected to the iPad.

Sometimes the simplest of solutions aren't the most obvious ;)

I don't have them syncronised (never used that). I now simply ingest
photos from an SD card to the iPad, then edit/post them to <wherever>
from there.
I generally use my iPhone for 'throwaway' photos, screenshots, etc. On
the iPad I have a more deliberate selection/editing process for camera photos. I'd rather not have to wade through everything just to select
those.
To be honest, I'm still trying to get my head around the whole JPG/RAW
thing. I can do a 'get info' on a photo in photos (iPad/iPhone) and
it'll tell me it's an 11mb RAW file. If I use Metaphoto to query it.
it'll tell me it's a 3.3mb JPG... Passing a RAW photo off to Documents
also changes it to JPG and reduces the size...
Can't help feeling I'm missing something.
Y'know, that was the first thing I thought of last night, but I didn't
think to scroll down instead of up! Hence I didn't see the card as an
option. Just done it! However....
The 11.9MB RAW file shows as a 3.2MB JPEG when moved over.
And Metaphoto (a little meta info app) shows both as being 3.2MB JPEGs.

What do you have in Settings -> Photos -> Transfer to Mac or PC?
Mine is set to 'Automatic', the other option being 'Keep Originals'.
It describes the option as:
"Automatically transfer photos and videos in a compatible format, or always transfer the original file without checking for compatibility"
I'd expect 'Keep Originals' to be what you want.
