      summary: Fetch the brochure for one Continuing Education Programme course
      description: 'Returns the course brochure as a PDF. No API key, cookie or Referer is required; the JSESSIONID cookie the server sets is not needed on the request. Content negotiation is not supported — sending `Accept: application/json` returns HTTP 406 with a Tomcat error page, which is how the underlying JAX-RS stack was identified.'
      parameters:
      - name: course_id
        in: query
        required: true
        description: Institutional course identifier. Slashes are sent unencoded by the institute's own links and are accepted that way. Omitting the parameter returns HTTP 200 with an empty text/plain body, the same response as an unknown course.

      responses:
        '200':
          description: Either the brochure PDF (Content-Type application/pdf, chunked) or — for a course with no brochure, an unknown course_id, or no course_id at all — Content-Type text/plain with a zero-length body. The status code does not distinguish the two; the Content-Type does.
