I have not purchased one yet, but what about the card reader that is supposed to work with iOS 13 so that you could copy a file to an SD card and put it in the reader that connects via the lightning port on the iPhone. Then, use the files app to get it from the card to the iPhone?
Just a thought.

You could use iTunes file sharing. If you need to share files between a PC and an iDevice on a regular basis, it is also supposed to be possible to use a protocol called SMB to connect your PC to your phone so that your phone sees it as a drive. I couldn't figure out how to do this when I was writing my iOS 13 book, but there should be some good instructions out there by now.

Another alternative to Richard's suggestion of emailing the file as an attachment is to open a free Dropbox account. With Dropbox installed on your computer, any files placed in the Dropbox folder on your local computer are automatically uploaded to the cloud and can be accessed with the very accessible Dropbox app on your iDevice. I've also found Dropbox to be the most widely supported cloud service across all the apps I use.
