Dear Al Adams

Unfortunately that "download PDF" function is buggy and ill-maintained. You are welcome to report the bug

(see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bug_reports_and_feature_requests
on how to do so), but it's considered a low priority.
The best advice I can give you is to try again later. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Yours sincerely, Ingo Schröder
