fix: add progress output and better timeout handling for batch PDF script

- Add flush() after each echo to show progress in real-time
- Increase curl timeout to 30 seconds with 10 second connect timeout
- Add curl error handling to diagnose connection issues
- Add progress messages (generating HTML, sending to spooler)
