2 Proven Methods to Download Documents from Scribd.com

Do you know which website holds the largest repository of user-generated Documen
ts, PDFs, PPTs and eBooks?
Yes, it s Scribd.com.
Scribd s big vision is to become the Netflix of Documents, which means, in coming
times, you will be able to read majority of digital documents on this website.
But since Scribd is a proprietary service, they won t offer you their entire repos
itory for free. At best, you can do barter, i.e. you upload a quality document t
o Scribd and in exchange, you can download a document from the site, Easy, right
?
But, what if I tell that there are ways with which you can get unlimited access
to the entire Scribd repository.
You do want to get unlimited access to Scribd.com, right?
If your answer to the above question was a big frickin Yes! Then I make a sweepin
g declaration: With this blog post today, I will teach how you to download unlim
ited number of documents from Scribd. For FREE!
You know, I sometimes feel that whatever I am doing is wrong. That somehow, by w
riting these technology tutorials, I am stealing money from big companies like S
cribd, that are actually providing really high quality services on the web.

In some ways, it s true! But there s a bright side to it.

You know millions of computers in the world run pirated copy of Windows. And whe
n Bill Gates was asked about it, he said, that: Yes, piracy hurts our revenues a
nd we can stop it easily, but that would mean that millions of students in count
ries like India, Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh etc. won t be able to access our soft
ware anymore.
Same thing s true for you!
If you re downloading educational documents, documents that you will use to educat
e yourself, then I don t think there s anything wrong!
It s easier for our software to compete when there s piracy than when there is not.

Bill Gates3 [Click to Tweet]

You can, and should freely use Scribd download software and Scribd download scri
pts.
Okay! So, the time is right. We ll now begin materializing our desires into action
. I will show 2 Ways, broken down into easily executable steps that you can use
to Download Documents from Scribd.com.
The Step by Step Procedure
Note: Each step of each process is supplemented with a screenshot. The picture w
ill help you execute the steps with precision and accuracy. To make this web pag
e load faster, I am providing links beside each step. Clicking on this link will
take you to the screenshot.

Well, apparently the document I was trying to download from scribd wasn t actually
a *.pdf but a bunch of jpg s. Unfortunately neither flashgot nor downthemall mana
ged to download all images at once, however all I had to do was saving the page
and then looking in the folder for the jpg files. So basically right clicking an

ywhere on a blank part of the website and saving as did the trick for me.

, it only saves part of the first page. and it won t let me select and copy any pa
rts of the document. and it only prints the same part of the first page.

Hi!
First of all, thanks for this post. This really works. I printed to pdf the file
using the first method. But I d like to know if there is a method to download doc

ument, no printing it.

I say this becouse the quality and size per page isnt the same and doesn t have OC
R
Thanks anyway! Best regards ??

No, you cannot download the resource, because that s a feature that scribd offers
to its premium members. This method is a trick and to be really honest it s not at
all ethical.

Well, I see they still give access_key in page source even for those documents r
equiring subscription to download. I did not check if you actually need to login
I DID login, but I have no subscription.
Now, we need to check if that access_key will still give access only to those pa
ges available for free (apparently you cannot even see all pages of some document
s for free)
I hope the SWF viewer could use that access key as the master key for the full doc
ument, but I still need to check that.

Smooookie !
It works ! The first metod was goooood , so I didn t test the others . For akane : t
he download didn t work for me either . But do install a small program like PrimoPDF
which will create a virtual printer . The result is saving as a pdf file . PrimoP
DF is just an exemple, there are a lot of pdf printer drivers outthere.
Good LUCK !

None of the methods worked. The first one allowed showing me just the first half
(300) of the entire 600 pages, though no saving options found efficient, just p
roposing to wait until the document is loaded. I waited over 2 hours in vain. Pr
inting of a part of the document is impossible even by DoPDF or the like. Any ad
vices?

This methods works well for shorter files, like 10-20 pages. Larger documents ta
kes more time to download and the Scribd downloader times out in that time.

It s not working for me ??
When I replace the document id and access key and enter the URL, the page never
stops loading, and it gets stuck on step 7. The two circles keep rotating, showi
ng that it s loading, but nothing else happens. Tried it on Firefox, Chrome and no
w Internet Explorer. I was looking for such a comment but I guess no one else ha
s had that problem. I even checked if the browser was blocking some plugin and i
t wasn t.

Ok, so this works perfectly for downloadable documents. But what about e-books t
hat don t have a download option. This trick won t work for them? Any other way to d
ownload e-books using the 14 day free online access? The books I m looking for are
n t available anywhere else.
