Bulk-Downloads full-text PDFs (or any other sources) from PubmedCentral OA articles

After inputting your desired document identifiers into the file ids.txt, execute the main.sh script. It will do the following:

1. Download the document index file from PMC
2. For each id check wether it is available; if it is, download the sources from PMCs ftp server
3. Extract the archives
4. Move and rename the pdfs (or any other source type if you want to adapt the copy_rename.sh scripts suffix constant, e.g. to nxml)
5. Remove the downloaded archive files

Your files will be located in the pdf folder, named as PMC${ID}.${SUFFIX}

Depending on the number of requested ids, this process may take a while and may require several GBs of disk space
