Mmh, I just tried to reproduce your:

Having Preview on a different "space" and moving after a change from my
editor on space 1 to Preview on space 2 hadn't moved the view to the first
page, and showed the change on the correct page (in my experiment, it stayed
on p. 3 and showed the change I had made on p. 3). Maybe that works for you
too?

as ever,
Rembrandt (still thinking that Skim is the better choice, though :-))
