I bought an online course recently. They mention on their websites that a note will be provided. But in the names of note they provide a 2-page summary for download, and the original note PDFs are not downloadable. I tried to download PDF from their sites via IDM but file corrupted. Even I tried to force copy and pasting into other documents but not successful as it pastes some encoded language. Only way I found to click screenshots of each and every pages on pc and paste into the word. It is very time-consuming. Is there another way to download PDF from their sites? Edit: look like the best way to capture it through screenshot.

Seems like you can remove the header and the sidebar HTML nodes, set the width of the pdfViewer class to 100% and hit Ctrl+P. Alternatively you may save one "page" at a time using Ctrl+Shift+S as described by @tumulus_scrolls

yes I think the best and easy way is to take screenshot.. document is secured and text are cipher. I tried to download their videos but they blocked me from their site too..
