Issue
Github public repo has release v1.0.
The following curl command downloads only 9 bytes output of 42KB.
curl -O -L -J --ssl-no-revoke https://github.com/marmayogi/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win/releases/v1.0/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win-1.0.zip

Based on comments received, the response of curl command only withL flag is added up in the post:
curl -L https://github.com/marmayogi/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win/releases/v1.0/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win-1.0.zip
curl: (35) schannel: next InitializeSecurityContext failed: Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable to check revocation for the certificate.
Added with post based on the comments received.
My desktop was expecting --ssl-no-revoke along with curl command. This problem was resolved with flag k. Here is the evidence.
"C:\Program Files\Neovim\bin\curl.exe" -o TTF2PostscriptCID-Win-1.0.zip -L https://github.com/marmayogi/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.zip

curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
More details here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html
curl performs SSL certificate verification by default, using a "bundle"
of Certificate Authority (CA) public keys (CA certs). If the default
bundle file isn't adequate, you can specify an alternate file
using the --cacert option.
If this HTTPS server uses a certificate signed by a CA represented in
the bundle, the certificate verification probably failed due to a
problem with the certificate (it might be expired, or the name might
not match the domain name in the URL).
If you'd like to turn off curl's verification of the certificate, use
the -k (or --insecure) option.
Can anyone throw some light on this issue?
Thanks in advance.
Solution
I'd recommend using
curl -sL https://github.com/marmayogi/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.zip >filename.zip
or
curl -sLO https://github.com/marmayogi/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.zip
Optionally you can also use (loosens SSL security)
curl -sL --ssl-no-revoke https://github.com/marmayogi/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.zip >filename.zip
or
curl -sLO --ssl-no-revoke https://github.com/marmayogi/TTF2PostscriptCID-Win/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.zip
-s, --silent Silent or quiet mode. Do not show progress meter or error messages. Makes Curl mute. It will still output the data you ask for, potentially even to the terminal/stdout unless you redirect it. Use --show-error in addition to this option to disable progress meter but still show error messages.
-L, --location (HTTP) If the server reports that the requested page has moved to a different location (indicated with a Location: header and a 3XX response code), this option will make curl redo the request on the new place.
-O, --remote-name Write output to a local file named like the remote file we get. (Only the file part of the remote file is used, the path is cut off.) The file will be saved in the current working directory.
--ssl-no-revoke (Schannel) This option tells curl to disable certificate revocation checks. WARNING: this option loosens the SSL security, and by using this flag you ask for exactly that.
The curl then gets redirected to whatever filename you want (filename.zip) or with the -sLO it selects the filename automatically.
