Unable to download PDF using curl (OS X)

To download the original PDF from the given URL, you can use a web scraping tool or write a simple script using Python or any other programming language. Here's an example using Python with the requests and BeautifulSoup libraries:

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

# Make a request to the webpage
r = requests.get('https://www.sceneggiatureitaliane.it/perfettisconosciuti_sceneggiatura')

# Parse the HTML content
soup = BeautifulSoup(r.content, 'html.parser')

# Find the link to the PDF
pdf_link = soup.find('a', {'href': re.compile('\.pdf$')})

# Print the link
print(pdf_link['href'])

# Download the PDF
r = requests.get(pdf_link['href'])

# Save the PDF to a file
with open('perfettisconosciuti_sceneggiatura.pdf', 'wb') as f:
    f.write(r.content)

Replace the URL in the script with the actual URL of the webpage you want to scrape. This script will find the first link that ends with .pdf on the page and download it.

Please note that this script requires you to have the requests and BeautifulSoup libraries installed. If you don't have them installed, you can install them using pip:

pip install requests beautifulsoup4

This script generates plain HTML output and is valid HTML.
