Ok so I want to download this embedded PDF/document in order to physically print it. The website allows me to view it as much as I want, but is asking me to fork over 25 + tax USD so i can download the document.

Obviously, i don’t want to do that, so I try to download the embedded document via inspect element. But, the weird thing is it not actually loading a pdf, but like really small pictures of each page:

So, my question is basically how can I download this document in order to print it?

    In this case the jpegs themselves change everytime you zoom in, so you zoom in a little it loads a new set of higher quality Jpegs.

    Do you remember the tool you are talking about?

      ChromeCacheView is a step in the right direction, but nothing fully automatic. I’m also searching for a less manual solution.

      You could stitch together the pdfs with screen captures then, but that would be a royal pain in the ass.
