Print-to-PDF is locked down. There’s a print option as part of the software, but it slaps my student email diagonally across every single page, which makes reading it kind of obnoxious.

I don’t intend to distribute (which I’m assuming is why it’s locked up so tight), but needing to log in and navigate to the text is getting cumbersome, so I’m hoping to just save a chapter at a time to my phone and whip that out to tackle my reading assignments.

Also hoping to preserve images, since a lot of the info is charts and such, so PDF seems like the best target, but open to any ideas.

…I suppose I could just suck it up and deal with their annoying software, but at this point I hate to admit defeat lol.

    Noscript is another addon, it blocks Javascript completely. You probably won’t be able to log in, but it’s worth a shot.

    I just looked at the Elsevier page, it looks like what I expected. I’m sure there’s a way to get the docs, I just don’t have much access right now to search for it. My last recommendation is to try and find the book on a torrent site. My second last recommendation is to ask at !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com (I don’t know if that link will work) if someone knows about Elsevier, they’re pretty helpful, and you’re just trying to read a book you already have access to.

    Good luck.
