Using automator to download list of URLs
I have a list of URLs that I want to use automator to download. The URLs link to PDF files on a website.
I am using the following workflow:
"Get Specified Text (putting the list of URLs in here)" -> "Filter paragraphs (filtering out paragraphs beginning http://)" -> "Download URLs".
The URLs are getting passed and filtered correctly but the files that are downloaded are generic html files (no specific name, just a number) and not the PDFs. I can paste each URL into the browser individually and it will download the PDF so I know the URLs are correct. How do I get it to download the PDFs instead of these html files?
