Without telling us the exact site, the only answer you can expect to get is a resounding "maybe".

it is a indian website and all the content are DRM protected.
You're not helping if you don't tell us the exact name of the website. Every DRM implementation works different.
Search internet for the file name maybe?
their notes are like compilation of some books regarding a particular exam. I can find books online but not their notes.
They may not expose the actual PDF to you at all, just some software rendering of it. In that case I'd focus on making screenshotting efficient. Find a program that lets you save the whole screen to file automatically at once (one button press), or use Firefox ctrl+shift+s -> click on the page area -> save -> enter.
I think the same.. because I tried every way that I know.. On developer menu it shows every page inside a div container, and every element on that page word or text in the span container. even it is not directly written in the span container it is distorted the way words are written.. https://temp-file.org/jcwX1twb7yjgByb/preview https://temp-file.org/hIjgiABXlvinKlh/preview https://temp-file.org/TiC5Kp8vpya5YsM/preview https://temp-file.org/Z3df1Yzh47CvtIu/preview have a look
If you are not able to share the name of the website, could you maybe share a screenshot of how the PDF is displayed on the website? That would a bit more helpful towards solving your problem.

Looks like the link you shared is not set to public. Just a heads-upโGoogle Drive will show your account name and profile picture for shared files. If you don't want that, you could upload the image directly here in a Lemmy comment, or use something like Pixelfed.
Print to PDF?
I tried, not working.. It is not a pdf, some how all the pages are in different div container and text inside the page are in the span container but in distorted form.
pdf open only to their websites in a window.. it is DRM protected content.
Try reverse engineering the DRM. Most DRMs are stupid simple to break. Look at the JS code or the network tab under devtools. Maybe you can get the key.
If all fails, login through a headless browser session using python + selenium and use some quick and dirty scripting to screenshot each page.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ussgvci_rGPZLrm4eLTEfkbJRv5Sgh3s?usp=sharing .. take a look into this screenshot.. it looks like all the page are in div container, every text in span container but in distorted format
I can't view this because the screenshot is not public and I don't have a Google account to request access. In general you will want to right click the div, copy its selector (or if you wanna be specific, the XPATH) and use that in selenium to save the text or the image content.
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..
I found another site that seems to use the same backend and pdf renderer. I looked at the network tab, and it downloads a .epdf file, but I'm not sure how to open it. If you want to have a go at cracking it, here's a link to it: https://pastebin.com/w6JkNDYH
