The famous Pepper Deck for Sketchy Pharm is a pre-made Anki deck that uses screenshots from Sketchy (with permission/fair use). Each card shows a portion of a scene and asks for the drug, side effect, or mechanism. This is the closest legal equivalent to a "PDF" because you can study it offline, use spaced repetition, and print individual cards. Search the r/medicalschoolanki wiki for the official Pepper Deck.
