You know you have just renamed a html file to a txt file, don't you?
One can hardly convert a html file to a txt file, I mean in a way that the html tags disappear (yes, you can parse it with sed, but it's not recommended)
What do you think about this (yes, it looks complicated, but it might be a way better solution)...
In the download folder;
(Make sure there are only files downloaded from link.txt, just in case...)
The above awk
extracts the "path" to the download link for the appropriate pdf file.
creates a file tcode-pdf.txt with testcode-pdfname pairs (later, this is used in the renaming process)
generates a download list
This time, wget will download PDFs
This awk command will generate commands (and execute them) to rename the cryptic filename of the pdf to testcode.pdf
E.g. test-pdf.php?testid=4125 to MM123.pdf
convert pdfs to txt files.
I've experimented with one test-code and the output looks very viable
