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?

You could write a script to scroll through the document at defined intervals, take screenshots, then have the script edit them together.

Of course by then, the time you'd have spent would be worth more than $25

Yes, but you'd now have a script that can be used in the future as well. Automation is a magical thing, my friend.
