 Social Media (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/social-media/)
Originally marketed as the “YouTube” for documents, Scribd began its operation as a way
for anyone to publish and host their documents and writing online. Born out of the need
for one of the site’s creators to host his father’s medical research without having to pay
for publication and wait over a year for the documents to be published, the site gained
notoriety in 2009 after signing a deal with several publications, including The New York
Times, Huf ngton Post, TechCrunch, and several other blogs and publications to host
their documents, as well as for their Scribd Store, which allowed users to sell digital
copies of their work online.

Since then, Scribd has morphed into an online subscription service, built to read millions
of eBooks, comics, and more online with a Net ix-like subscription service. Despite this
refocus on more mainstream titles and novels, Scribd is still used by millions of people
daily to host and share online documents using the platform built by the site itself. In the
site’s documents section, you’ll nd historical papers, political documents, poll results,
and plenty of other information for use in your college assignments, term papers, or just
as a general document of interest. And while viewing these articles is free by itself, albeit
with some limitations on certain documents, downloading this information to your
computer is limited for often than not.

While you should avoid downloading and using others’ documents without paying for a
monthly Scribd decision, at the end of the day, certain users—students speci cally—may
nd it dif cult to pay for the research and other documents provided on the website.
/
Luckily, there are some ways around these restrictions. Though the three methods
outlined below are both occasionally hit (https://www.techjunkie.com)
or miss, they often can be used to bypass the
Scribd security and subscription measures, making it easy to view the documents
(https://www.techjunkie.com)
necessary for your next project or paper. Here’s what to do.
 MAC (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/mac/)
 Windows (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/windows/)
 iPhone (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/iphone/)
METHOD ONE: UPLOADING DOCUMENTS
 Android (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/android/)
First, it’s important to note that thisWeb Apps (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/web-apps/)
is method one for a reason. Although we have three
methods on this list, this is the one  we’ve(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/security/)
thatSecurity had the most luck with, and as of March
 Gaming
2019, it’s still the one that works reliably. (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/gaming/)
However, it’s not perfect, so if this method ever
 Gadgets (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/gadgets/)
goes down, let us know in the comments and try our other two methods below.
 Social Media (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/social-media/)
Our rst method for downloading Scribd documents on the web today relies on
uploading a document of your own to a Scribd account, in order to gain access to the
document you want to download. We’ll be performing our test in Google Chrome,
though you should be able to accomplish this in any modern browser, including Firefox,
Safari, and Microsoft Edge. Start by heading over to Scribd.com
(https://www.scribd.com) and signing up for a new account. Alternatively, if you already
have an account with Scribd, you can use your existing account by logging in. Scribd
supports accounts with both Facebook and Google sign-ins, so starting a new account is
as easy as clicking a button and linking your account. Once you’ve signed in, nd the
document you want to download and copy the URL down to an outside source, like a
Google Keep note or Word document.

From here, you’ll want to click the “Download” option on the right side of your display.
This will automatically redirect you to a page designed to help you set up your Scribd
subscription, complete with a 30-day trial. Above this page, however, you’ll see an option
to upload les from your computer, with a button that reads “Select Files to Upload.”
Click this button and, on your computer, prepare any kind of document. If you have a
word processor installed on your computer, like Word or Apple Pages, you can use that to
create a short, meaningless document. Alternately, you can use Google Docs to create a
free document on your computer, and download it to your device. The document can

/
contain anything, including straight gibberish; we recommend using a Lorem Ipsum
(https://www.techjunkie.com)
generator (http://generator.lorem-ipsum.info/) if you’re having trouble guring out what
to write. When your document is uploaded, provide a title for the new le and hit “Save.”
(https://www.techjunkie.com)

 MAC (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/mac/)
Now, grab that URL we saved earlier in this process and paste it into the address bar at
 Windows (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/windows/)
the top of your web browser. A download button should load on your device, and you’ll be
 iPhone (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/iphone/)
able to save the Scribd document to your computer. However, we should mention that,
 Android (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/android/)
thanks to recent updates from Scribd, we ‘ve had some dif culties performing this
 Web Apps (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/web-apps/)
without rst editing the HTML code using the(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/security/)
Security inspect button on your browser. It’s not a

 Gaming
perfect solution, but once you edit the HTML (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/gaming/)
for the View button to lead to your device,
you can download an HTML version ofGadgets
the page, allowing you to take the document
(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/gadgets/)
of ine. If you have access to
Adobe Media (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/social-media/)
Social Acrobat Pro (check with your school or teacher), you
can convert the HTML document to a PDF.

METHOD TWO: USING THE PAGE SOURCE CODE


The second of two methods used for viewing Scribd documents, this involves using
Mozilla Firefox to view the page’s source code to gain access to the page’s info. As
mentioned above, we’ve experienced some hit or miss results with this method, but
since it only takes a couple minutes of your time to try, it’s worth trying anyway. You’ll
know this method has failed if you receive a message that announces an invalid key error.
Otherwise, let’s get going with your Scribd document. This was originally our top-
recommended way to download Scribd documents without paying for a membership,
but we’ve heard from enough users having dif culty with this process to demote it to a
backup method.

Start by navigating Firefox (we can’t suggest using Chrome, as Chrome generates a .swf
le that never manages to download) to the Scribd document you’re looking to save to
your computer. Though Scribd also carries full-length novels and other works of ction,
we recommend only using this for non ction documents and other sources for your
projects, papers, and research. Inside your document’s preview, right-click the document
and select “View Page Source” from the menu. This will open a new tab in your browser,
displaying the source information for your Scribd target.
/
In this new page, hit Ctrl+F to open the Find in Page UI in Firefox. In this eld, enter the
(https://www.techjunkie.com)
phrase “access_key,” and upon nding the result in the Scribd source code, highlight and
copy the code to your computer. It should be an alphanumerical code, and appear as
(https://www.techjunkie.com)
‘key-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.” Now head back to the original document page in your browser
 MAC (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/mac/)
and look at the URL in the top of the browser.
 Windows This time, we’re looking for the document
(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/windows/)
ID number in the URL of your speci 
c page. Unlike
iPhone the access key, the document ID is
(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/iphone/)
 Android
listed in the URL, and consists of several numbers. The URL should appear as
(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/android/)
 Web Apps (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/web-apps/)
“‘https://www.scribd.com/read/NUMBER/DOCUMENT TITLE.” We’ll be using the number
portion of that link in a moment.  Security (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/security/)
 Gaming (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/gaming/)
Now, open up a new tab in Firefox. 
We’re going
Gadgets to create a new URL using the
(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/gadgets/)
information provided us by
both theMedia
Social (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/social-media/)
access key, the document ID number, and the
following partial URL: “http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf?
document_id=NUMBER&access_key=key-ACCESS_KEY”. When you’ve pasted this URL
into your new tab, replace the number section with the document ID and the access key
area with the access key you grabbed earlier. Following this, you’ll have to wait a few
minutes for the page to load as your documents begins to download from the Scribd
servers. Once your document has nished loading, use the print option to print to PDF,
and your document will be saved to your computer.

If this method doesn’t work for you, and you receive some form of error message from
Scribd, retry using the rst method listed above. Users have reported to us that their
preferred method uses the document upload method listed above.

METHOD THREE: GREASEMONKEY SCRIPTS


For this next step, you’ll need to use one of multiple different Greasemonkey scripts to
download your document, in addition to using Firefox. This has been hit or miss with us
as well, especially as extensions and plugins age and Scribd continues to update their
site. Still, it’s worth mentioning if only for the sake of completion. The rst thing you’ll
need to make sure you have is Firefox. Greasemonkey is a Firefox-only extension, and
though Tampermonkey exists for Chrome, we’re going to need to use Firefox for this one.
Install Greasemonkey from the Firefox plugin store, and head over to this site

/
(https://frddl.github.io/scribd-bypasser/) to install the Scribd Greasemonkey extension.
(https://www.techjunkie.com)
There are actually several of these that exist online, and each may be worth trying until
you nd the correct one for you.

 MAC (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/mac/)
 Windows

their site, we can’t always
 Web Apps (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/web-apps/)
guarantee that you’ll be able to nd a script that works. In our tests, we found success

 Gadgets (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/gadgets/)
include options to de-blur documents on(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/social-media/)
 Social Media Scribd.

***
Unfortunately, the nature of Scribd means that these methods are far from perfect.
Scribd doesn’t want users to access their document collection for free, and therefore,
these methods are always up in the air for whether or not they’ll work. Typically, trying to
force Scribds hand will get you somewhere, from a full-blown document downloaded
from their servers to a saved and converted HTML document that can be used for PDF
les. As always, we update this article once every couple months with the newest
information we can, and our comment section is a great way to see who else is having
success downloading from Scribd. None of the methods performed here are by any
means perfect, but with enough time, energy, and effort, making progress within Scribd
to gain access to documents for your homework or studying isn’t too far away.

The lack of knowledge in this thread is amazing. Method 1: When you paste a link into your browser, it
doesn’t matter what page you’re currently on, or if you uploaded or anything, it’s a new web request to
download. So if the document is free to begin with, it will download. If it’s not free, it won’t download.

Nothing magical or “hackish” about it.

Hey, I found an easier way to do that. 


MAC (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/mac/)


Subscribe to scribd then go to the document you want
Windows to download.
(https://www.techjunkie.com/category/windows/)
Instead of clicking the blue download button, click on the print button which is just above (next to share
button).

 Android
They will tell you that you need to download (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/android/)
it rst. Click on dowload and print. Choose between .pdf or
.txt aaaand that’s it LOL  Web Apps (https://www.techjunkie.com/category/web-apps/)
