If it has been entered into probate, then it is now a matter of public record. This means that you or anyone else for that matter can as the right to view it. However, whether you need to send for a hard copy or can get a copy online is up to the policy as set out by the appropriate probate court. This is the probate court that is located in the county in which your father was domiciled as of the date of his death. Accordingly, you will need to contact them directly about it procedures regarding this.
