Everyone is aware of Scribd, which is the world’s largest digital library of all kinds of written books as PDF mostly. Scribd consists of nearly 40 million documents posted by their users. On Scribd, New and old authors publish or sell their works and readers can browse through the pages and find the appropriate one for their needs. It is essentially a paid service and hence even if it lets you view a certain amount of documents for Free, you can’t download them unless you upgrade to a paid membership. With a small subscription rate, Scribd readers can view and read all such documents from their favorite platforms like Android, iOS, and Windows.
With the free membership, you can view a limited number of documents in Scribd’s database. You need a Scribd downloader in order to get the files you want for free. In this blog post, you are going to learn how to download unlimited files from Scribd for free. You don’t even have to create an account with Scribd to download most of the documents with this simple trick explained here.

Method 1. By Uploading Method :
We discovered a loophole in the Scribd database which allows any user to view or download the files for free, without t even paying for the Subscription pack. Follow the instructions below to download or view a file for free.
#Step1: Go to Scribd.com
#Step2: Search document or page you want to view or download without paying to Scribd and copy the URL of that page
Sign Up or Login To Scribd Account Using Facebook.
#Step3: Now login to Scribd account or simply sign up for a new account. Alternatively, use the Facebook Login option
#Step4: After the signing up you will be asked for subscriptions if you are not a monthly subscription. Just Skip it and get back to your account (important step)
Upload Any Document to Scribd your Account Upload Any Document to Scribd Account
#Step6: Now Upload any type of document. For eg: create a new text document and write anything on it and upload
#Step7: Give titles and description of the uploaded content (not required but if you want to, you can) and Save it to continue
Write file info about the Document you are Uploading to Scribd
#Step8: Now paste the URL you copied in #Step 2 in the address bar for downloading that document
#Step9: You will see a download button, just click on it and your download will start. You can notice here that the file once not download getting download easily
This is it. It is the simplest way that works most of the time. All you need to do is create an account to upload a file and then try to download the desired document

Method 2. Using Greasemonkey script to download Scribd Documents and Files :
This is another method that will let you download desired documents and files from Scribd for free. You don’t even have to log in using your Facebook account or Sign up for a new account or buy a paid membership, nor upload any document to Scribd. You just need the Mozilla Firefox Web Browser for this task.
- Go to this link and download the Firefox
- Then add Greasemonkey add-on or Tampermonkey ( works on Google Chrome/Safari/UC Browser/Opera and Firefox) to your browser. Click download and it will install automatically
- Now download this user-script
- Install it within Greasemonkey
- Finally, Go to any document you want to download from Scribd and click on download. This custom script will automatically bypass Scribd’s payment page and give you the option to download your document.
This works!
Method 3. Easiest way to download documents from Scribd
1) Go to scribd.com, search for the document you want and open it
2) Right-click anywhere on the page and click view page source
3) Search for access_key, once you find it copy it to someplace. See the image above for an example of what the key looks like
4) Get the document id of the documents that you want to download using this free Scribd downloader. See the image below for an example of what the document ID looks like
Scribd Downloader – Techposts.org
5) Replace access_key and document id in this URL
http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf?document_id=108992419&access_key=key-13davbcdewnewn9m5w02
And paste the modified URL into a new browser window
6) Let the document load. Once it is completely loaded, click on the print button and then save as pdf
7) That’s it! The document will be downloaded as a pdf file to your computer. There are a couple of more Scribd downloader methods using which you can download from Scribd without paying them money.
UPDATE: This guide is still 100% Working and you can download any document from Scribd for free. BOOKS CAN’T BE DOWNLOADED.
Method 4. Using Command Prompt or Terminal in PC and Mac
This is a bit tricky method but if you follow our instructions as mentioned step by step, you will find it easy. However, please note that this may be deprecated with time since Scribd updates their websites and patches vulnerabilities frequently.
So if that does not work, don’t worry, we have a few other options that I have discuses below.
Step 1. Download and install Python 3.5
Step 2. Open command prompt and type following command
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Users\ravi.singh\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\Scripts
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Users\ravi.singh\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36
Step 3. After setting the environment variables, we need to check if python and pip are working.
Step 4. Open a new Command Prompt window and type in command prompt pip and press Enter. If see output with commands, pip is working
Step 5. Now type pip install Scribd-dl and press Enter. Let it install the python package
Step 6. Now go to Scribd and browse the document you want to download. Copy the URL to the document and paste the following command
scribd-dl https://www.scribd.com/document/90403141/Social-Media-Strategy
Replace the URL with your document URL and press Enter. Wait for a while till it downloads the file. Then browse the directory where cmd was running and access the downloaded Scribd document.
Method 5. Get up to 2-Month Scribd Subscription for Free
The trial subscription entitles you to use the Scribd platform as a paid member. After getting a free trial subscription, you can download the required documents and up to 3 books in one month.
All you have to do is, sign up either on their website or Android /iOS app and start your free 30-day trial.
How to get 2-Month FREE Scribd Subscription
We recently found that Scribd with Samsung is giving a 2 month extended trial instead of just 1-month. That is insane! There’s no other way currently to get 2-month free Scribd trial. Samsung bears the cost for an extra one-month subscription but you must own a Samsung Galaxy device. If any of your friend or relative owns a galaxy device, take their help and get access to your favorite book or documents with just a few taps.
- Open Galaxy Apps in your Samsung Galaxy device
- Search Scribd and install Scribd for Samsung app
- Sign in and start your 60-day free trial. Access your favorite books and documents for limitless reading completely FREE
Method 6. Using Scribd Downloader
If you reached here, it means either you have not tried any method yet or trying to download a book which is impossible for now. Read more on How to download Books from Scribd post I recently posted. One more possibility is that you are looking for the easiest way to download the required document from the Scribd repository.
However, when you search for Scribd Downloader, you will rarely find a working Scribd downloader website. The Scribd updates their websites with new lines of code occasionally after which these Scribd downloader websites fail to download the Scribd documents via URL. However, some sites like DLscrib.com—an amazing web app—lets you download required Scribd documents with just a few clicks. Therefore, go ahead and try the Scribd downloader. Also, let us know if that worked or which one worked for you.
Now that you know how to download files from Scribd for free, So go ahead and download whatever documents you like.

I’m using third step and its work. Thank you so much dude!
cabrão enganaste-me
Method 3 only gives the first 9 pages for me. Any way to fix this?
same thing happens with me as well.. I can see the entire document but can’t download more then the first 3 pages 🙁
Just type the number of pages in the dialog box below print or above print button this will solve the problem!
If you click share in the top right corner and then click the link under “READ ON SCRIBD” and then click download, it will let you download the whole thing for free.
wow thank u very much :))
Tried method 1, working fine. Thanks 🙂
Glad it worked for You!! 🙂
Surprisingly method 1 worked for me too 7 April 2016. Uploaded a dell pdf and a 1 image pdf then I could download.
The first one really works!!!!!! Thanks a lot techposts!

The first one really works!!!!!! Thanks a lot techposts
Yes, it does! Thanks for the comment!
thanks

Thank you so much! It really worked!
Happy to help you. Most welcome!! 🙂
Hey there, it seems for method 2 the link for the GM user script is down or missing. Is there some place else we can download the script? Cheers.
Thanks so much for the tutorial! I’m having trouble getting method one to work. I’m sure it’s super simple, but I’m hung up on step eight, I’m not sure what it means to copy the URL in the address bar for downloading that document. When I’m in the download page, I paste the URL in the address bar, but it still downloads the blank doc I uploaded. What am I missing?? Thanks so much!
After you typed everything for your upload file (name, description, etc), you have to click the “Save & Continue” line. After that, copy the url to the address bar of your web browser and press Enter. Hope its work!
This doesn’t seam to work for books, at least method 1 & 3 don’t. Tried Chrome and Edge and nothing. I think it might be the way the content is presented. The one I’m trying is: https://www.scribd.com/read/271604304/Towards-a-New-Architecture. Notice it says “read” instead of “doc” after the domain.
I tried 3. way as assumed to be easiest. Doesn’t work. Then tried Greasemonkey and it worked perfectly.
Thanks
Thanks dude!
I used method three and I’m downloading a dictionary.
Used method 1, worked fine.
Thanks!
Not working for me. Am using android phone (phantom z tecno). Is it workable with android phones?
Guys, I have a MUCH easier way. You right click on the image and select open image in new tab. You go to that tab, then you copy it. When you’ve done that paste it on microsoft word and print it then abracadabra! You have whatever sheet you need. (I’ve used this only for music sheets)
There is no link for the Greasemonkey user-script
could you paste the Greasemonkey user-script, PLEASE?
Hey man, I tried method 1 and it actually worked, thank you so much
Surprisingly enough this worked, thank you!
I am only able to download first 16 pages.

Thank dude, method 1 works like charm

the first step works ike a charm. so, simply upload a file and you can download the file you wanted to
it works perfectly, the third option is the best! , and i was trying download and I think it work in any browser, but its better use Chrome, -> print from 1-X page, thanks dude!
Thank you! method one worked! 🙂
Wath is the link for the Grease Monkey script

Method 1 worked perfect. For those having trouble in step 8 simply after you uploaded copy URL page that you originally want and paste it to address bar of your browser and after it refreshes you will see download button.
I tried also Mehtod 3. It worked but when I save as pdf it only takes first 16 pages. But still I could reach online

Hey,
I’ve tried all three methods, a few times, and none will work. Do you know if they’ve gotten wise to the downloading tricks and have blocked these?
Any help is much appreciated!!
Hey,you can try the first method it worked for me. After uploading a random file, you just have to paste the url of required document in place of the orginal uploaded document in the browser address bar and press enter. Then the required document will appear. You can click dowload on the said page and it will work.
1 still workx! tnx!
First method works perfect !!!!

https://www.scribd.com/read/232955343/Kierkegaard-s-Writings-IV-Part-II-Either-Or
email it to [email protected] thanks!
Does this only work with Docs? I’ve tried several “https://www.scribd.com/book/” URLs and no go. I tried method #3 and I get a never ending “typesetting..,” with two spinners above in both Chrome and IE 11 (didn’t bother using Edge because everything reports it as chrome, so I would assume it would treat it like that) and “Saving trees…” with the same spinners in Firefox. As for Method #2, script link (TinyUpload.com) gives me “File was deleted from server. File was deleted by owner or exceeded maximum storage time (100 days from last download).” So no go on that. I have a subscription to Scribd, so I can access the full book(s) online. I’ve tried two online downloaders (scribdownload.com and pdfdownloader.lain.in) with the first just looping the homepage when the URLs are submitted, no errors, and the second giving me “Server error 500”, basically the submit location php is down or errored. Example of URL one that nothing seems to work on is https://www.scribd.com/book/220193980/Card-Games-For-Dummies, but as I said, it is anything in the “book” category in the URL.
Hi!
thank you very much for the three options.
I can´t get any of the three to work :(…Option one isn´t not showing the download button, The greasymonkey script from option two doesn´t work too and the third option ends in a never finishing “loading” screen 🙁
Could you download this ebook? (https://www.scribd.com/book/264114937/Advanced-Software-Testing-Vol-2-2nd-Edition-Guide-to-the-ISTQB-Advanced-Certification-as-an-Advanced-Test-Manager)
Thank you very much in advance!!!!!

Thanks for the effort Ravi, much appreciated!
This is the target document: https://www.scribd.com/book/282496123/Electroplating-Basic-Principles-Processes-and-Practice
I have tried options 1 to 3. See below for results per option
1) used my facebook account to log-in, it appears I have used it before to login (in 2012), assume that shouldn’t prevent the hack to work. Followed step 1-7, on step 8 no download option appears. Instead it says:
“Yup, we’ve got that one
And more than one million more. Become a member today and read free for two weeks.”
Options I have:
read w 14 day trial
read preview
add to library
2) user scrip (point 3) is not downloadable
3) here is the link I generate: http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf?document_id=282496123&access_key=key-7TofvvUezllu3nvooe1T
tried opening document through
a) chrome (48.0.2564.116 m): it says typesetting, showing bicycle with moving wheels, don’t disappear within 10 minutes
b) firefox (42.0): only empty pages load w scribd logo centered, after 5 minutes notification appears “there was an error converting this document”
Am I doing something wrong, or just not working for the specific document?
its just loading and loading
Not working
Thanks a lot mate! I uploaded a file with c++ terms I wrote!
I’d like to ask for your help, Ravi:
I tried all three methods, they failed to work unfortunately.
Nr. 1 – no download option, only trial
Nr. 2 – the user-script is not available anymore
Nr. 3 – the document loads, but never reaches to print option in any browser
This one would be my target: http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf?document_id=270344128&access_key=key-799cDF9HQ8UsQ2SuYLch
Can you please help me out?
Hi!
thank you very much for the three options.
I can´t get any of the three to work :(…Option one isn´t not showing the download button, The greasymonkey script from option two doesn´t work too and the third option ends in a never finishing “loading” screen 🙁

Thank you very much in advance!!!!!
Dear Admin,
I have a better way to Download. But want some help from anyone willing to help.
You can download the scribd document by this link https://scribdownload.com/download/document?url= “link of scribd”
So, can anyone build a site and add a textbox there and a button to download.
On pressing the button the download will start.
Thank You in Advance
Hi Kal!

🙁 🙁 🙁
I also tried downloading this book by using the first and third method and it doesn’t work..
This is the link I used for downloading:
http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf?document_id=264114937&access_key=key-Ke9MWEQ0ohPNnRTwChfO
Could anyone else please try downloading it? I don’t understand where I went wrong..
The first method worked great!! Thank you!! Did not try the other methods 🙂
Thks mate your first step clicked.
The third method does not work on Chrome v49, and loads indefinitely.
It works perfectly for Internet Explorer v11.
Urgently need the doc at this link : https://www.scribd.com/doc/249209459/Peter-Linz-Solutions
Method 1 does not work. The download option appears but the file wont download and the message “We’re sorry, but your computer or network may be sending automated download queries. To protect our users, we can’t process your request right now” gets displayed.
‘Method 3 goes on some sort of infinite loop.
Please help me… Its badly needed
in print page, there is no option save to pdf. what should i do?????????
Which browser are you using?
I’ve tried Chrome, Safari and Firefox and they all don’t work (for option 3) – is there a new user-script yet for option 2? Thanks!
The first method worked great!! Thank you!!
you’re a Hero man!… it works!!!.. awesome!.. thanks a lot!!
thanks so much!!!!!!! method 1 works just like magic!!!!
THANKS RAVI INDIA IS GREAT ARE U CURRENTLY LIVING IN USA
Hello Proffmaster, glad this post helped you. I’m live in New Delhi, India!
Hi, all. For those who have been having trouble with Method 3: it works perfectly, but as it has been said, YOU HAVE TO WAIT for the whole page to load. If your connection is not full-hollywood 😉 and the document has many pages and many graphics, it can take a looooooot of time. Bear in mind that this “new” page is a render of the document, not the document itself. You may want to go to the last page and check if it has been rendered before trying to print. THEN you may print/save as PDF. Hope that helps.
Using scribd app is more easy to download the file. 1Stly install scribd app n then login as the user and find the doc. Click save to the device. So you don’t need to upload if u don’t have document to upload.
And then if you want to save as pdf file, just using file explorer and find cache document folder. You will see the numbering folder. Open it and you will see the file name content. Copy it and paste. Then rename it to content.pdf extension. Open it by using pdf app. Then rename it by the right file name.
Thanks for sharing, this post is great! I tried method 3 and it didn’t work for me (it takes hours for the page to load, and maybe for ever without any result), then I tried method 1 and it worked perfectly. Thanks a lot again!
I tried methods 2 and 3 but neither seems to work for me! 🙁
If you could please help me download this paper, it’s urgent-

“File was deleted by owner or exceeded maximum storage time (100 days from last download).”
I downloaded one book using method 1, it really worked. But the problem is I want to download 2 books but after I downloaded first book I can’t download the other. Someone helps me, please
thank you it worked! God Bless you!
Thank You man!!! OH!
You saved my life!!! I used method 1 and it works, really works…!!!
I think the first method is not working. I have used some sites which downloads PDF files for free. I will try the second method and let you know.
This is brilliant. Thank you so much!
This piece of writing is really a nice one it helps
new internet visitors, who are wishing for blogging.
Method 1 still works perfectly!
Fabulous!!, Trick 1
Thanks a lot!
Method 3 works great for me!
Pour les français: (dans Mozilla…)
-Dans un nouvel onglet, coller la ligne suivante dans la barre d’adresse :
http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf?document_id=108992419&access_key=key-13davbcdewnewn9m5w02
-Sur la page du document a charger: copier dans la barre d’adresse les chiffres (id) qui se trouve entre les 2 //
-coller les dans l’adresse du nouvel onglet à la place de “108992419”
-Sur la page du document a charger : Clic droit puis “code source de la page”
-Ctrl+F : cela affiche une ligne de recherche en bas de votre fenêtre, taper “key” dedans: cela vous amène vers accès_key!
-Copier le bout ressemblant à “key-13davbcdewnewn9m5w02”
-et coller le dans le nouvel onglet a la même place.
Vous arrivez alors sur l’aperçu du fichier que vous pouvez alors imprimez en pdf (nécessite parfois l’installation d’un programme adapter pour ceux qui n’en aurait pas…).
Il faut attendre que toute les pages est bien chargé pour que ce soit possible, du coup on peut rencontrer des difficultés avec les gros fichiers…
J’espère que ça vous aidera!
Another easier way exists …. Just press Ctrl + S… This will save the html file…. Now you can read the PDF offline. 😛 very easy than the methods described here.. 😛 😛
The first step works perfact. I did not login or registered. Direct go to upload section and follow from the step 6….
Method 3 works fine with me, but I have still a question:
Why can’t I download it as a pdf file? I can only print it!
Cooool & Thanks it worked out.
First method worked like a charm..!! On the go …… Thankuuuu so much!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU THE BESTEST DUDE!!! THANKS FOR HELPING ME TO MY SCHOOL PROJECT!!! 😀
Glad that it helped you!! Please share!
Hiii.
I tried to use the Method 3, but only appear a page with “Typesetting” and a engine loading but nothing happening.
Can you tell a way to fix it?
Thx

Hi Ravi
Any chance of posting the updated script for method 2?
Thanks
Hi Ryan,
Now you can use Method 2 as script link has been updated. Thanks!
Hi Ravi,
I tried method 3( I really love&enjoy it), by using chrome, safari, firefox on windows or macos, it’s not working. there is a bike keep running, showing the word “typesetting”. I guess the file I am trying to download is too big, so it takes time, am I right? Or anything I missed? Thanks in advance!
Which File are you trying to download. Leave the link and i will try it myself.

Hi Ravi,
Thank you for taking the time to create this article and provide these top tips.
I tried all three methods today and yesterday; I am struggling to get any of them to work to be honest.
Method 1 – did this, but cannot see where the “Download” button is?
Method 2 – did this, again, same issue, cannot see where the “Download” button is?
Method 3 – did this, issue here it constantly has “typesetting” / loading, but never loads – I left it for around 2-3 hours just in case!
Do you have any pointers? Are they still working definitely? And if yes, can you please screenshot where the “Download” button is?
Thanks for your assistance Ravi; it is truly appreciated.
Leave the file link, it happens often but with few files (doc). Lemme try it myself.
Hi Ravi,
No problem (I have a few I would like to download), but this is the one I tried:

P.S. My monster is hilarious! 😀
Hello Bruce,
Unfortunately, there’s no hack to download Books from Scribd. As you can in my Post, it’s mentioned that you can download all kind of PDF and DOC files.
I’m trying method 3 but it’s not working. Can you see it for me please? https://pt.scribd.com/document/291825218/Zaffaroni-Eugenio-Raul-Em-Busca-Das-Penas-Perdidas
I just Downloaded This Document using Method 1. It’s possible you didn’t followed all steps clearly. The size of PDF Document is 131MB.
Thank you very much, i’m gonna try again but let me ask you, can i use method 1 more than once?
Yes, you can, multiple times.
Hey Ravi..
Is it possible to download a book from scribd? Is there a trick to do so?
Any suggestions.
No. There’s no way!
Teaching others to take something that isn’t theirs (theft) will land you in the hottest place for all eternity (Our Creator has this written in the bible so we know the difference between right and wrong, good and evil)
Ravi Zacharias might put it better to you though than that.
The 1st method works in 2016. July 22.! : )
Thanks!

method 3 totally failure
For those having problems with method 3 (endlessly spinning the bike tires with “saving trees” message displayed) I couldn’t get it to work with chrome, then tried it in IE and it worked in a fraction of a second. I hate IE, but every now and then it works.
must be the flash version!
Hi. I am trying to download this PDF but none of the methods work. The greasemonkey one does nothing, while method 3 just stays on “rendering” and nothing happens.

I am confident they will be benefited from this web site.
Hi Ravi.. i have a paid scribd membership… but the website still doesn’t have the option of downloading the books…. how can i do it?? thank-you!
I don’t think there’s any way to doenload book. For paid membership, we may look for a workaround. For that you need to wait.
Thank u…

It’s abook and unfortunately, you can’t download Books from Scribd for free.
Hi Ravi, just wanna ask you something, did magazine is categorized as “books” or “document”? Thanks Ravi!
Some listed as Books and some as documents. For eg. https://www.scribd.com/doc/88540322/StrayX-Bizarre-Magazine-Interview this magazine can be downloaded using any of above listed method as it’s listed a “Document” on SCribd.
Hope this helps. Thanks! 🙂
you are a life saver bro…thankyou very much the first method still works absolutely fine.kudos 🙂
Great, the step 3 works
The greasemonky script no longer works. After installing it and going to Scribd and clickcing on Download you see a spinning circle icon briefly and then one is still prompted to either upload or take out a monthly subscription.
greasemonkey (optn 2) wasnt wrking..it was getng a msg as sign up..
Thanks for the Great information..

Thank you so much! The first method worked!
Superb blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?
I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paiid option? There
are so many optons out there that I’m completely confused ..
Any recommendations? Cheers!
TO DOWNLOAD BOOKS WATCH THIS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1d5S7-5nn9I
ALL YOU DO IS CREATE AN ACCOUNT AND CLICK DOWNLOAD THEN IT WILL SAY TO UPLOAD A DOCUMENT IN EXCHANGE FOR THE BOOK. USE A WORD DOCUMENT OR POWERPOINT FILE.

Hey just wanted to I tried #3 first, and it didn’t work for me. But I tried #1 & it worked! I thought they would have shut these downloading methods down, since people have been using them for years it looks like, but nope! I don’t know how you do it, but you do it! Thanks man! (If the date for this post doesn’t show, this is November 29, 2016, and still working)
Hey I just wanted to add, you can download 3 pdf’s per upload. And when you upload a new document you can download 3 more pdf’s. All my documents say is doh. The next one ra. And just put that in the title and description or what ever that was. It’s that simple!
THIS IS GREAT!
Thanks again! 🙂
3rd method works. Thank’s guys.
You cannot print, but at least you can read

Thank you very much.

can any one help me for this i can not download the document .i tried all 3 method .i does not work for me .pls help
How awesome are you dude. I got to your page but even after reading I did not think this would work. BUT IT DID and now I do not have to shelve out $$$$ for a text book for personal purpose which should have been free for all anyways.
Hi dude,
I tried step 1 but didnt work for me. I uploaded around 4 docs, still it didn’t give me download button. Whatever I do, it shows a dialog box saying, “Start your free 30 days” . I am giving up on this.
Awesome! Dec 2016 tried option 3 but although it ‘worked’ I think my connection isn’t fast enough for it to load without waiting hours. After waiting some time I decided to go with option 1 and that worked immediately. Site terminology update: click’no thanks’ to the free trial, and ‘done’ rather than save after uploading your item. After paste in the url for your desired book there are several download buttons. I clicked on the simple arrow at top right of the cover page. Worked straight away. I then pasted another url into that same tab and that worked too. Thanks heaps. I read online that accepting your month free trial can be hard to opt out of and so appreciate not having to jump through those hoops.
Thanks man its awesome

Hey! I am having issues downloading this book:
https://www.scribd.com/book/262901944/Tone-It-Up-28-Days-to-Fit-Fierce-and-Fabulous
It only has an “Add to Library” option and not a download option. Is there anyway to download these? Thanks so much 🙂
You can’t download books for free. There’s no workaround for downloading books from Scribd.
Bummer. Thanks anyway.
Method 3 works well to get a PDF, but it seems to be an image PDF, not text: can’t search, can’t select text for copy, etc. Seems like it may be built into the flash viewer?
Ravi we can download Books from scribd . Using my technique. when we sign sign in through Fb. There’s upload button through which we should upload any unique pdf file. Filling details about the file that you have uploaded and continue the step, then they will grant permission for downloading you your desirable content.

Hi, I’m trying to download this file from scribd, but I receive this error “IO Error Streaming Document”
https://www.scribd.com/doc/52156822/BANCO-PREGUNTAS-PATRON-DEPORTIVO-DE-BAHIA
What can I do to get around this error?
Thanks
Which way you using to get it offline!
Hi, I can’t get this to work – please can you help? I can’t see an option to save my uploaded document
GREATTTT…! got success in downloading by 1st method.!
None of these work.
omg, thanks a lot man, u save my day. i used 3rd method and its really work. by the way u should use internet explorer to see the page. DONT USE FIREFOX OR CHROME !!!! thanks a lot dude
document I am trying to download is more than 400 pages, it only shows first 20/30 pages. So all methods work but downloads only first 20/30 pages. I need full document, any hack?
It doesn’t work anymore since last year. You should check it before spam it for the bait!
Don’t you comment without trying any method? And if you can see latest comments, people have Thanked the blog as this method still works. You knowledge is very poor. On Techposts.org, we do not post spam. So do check before you comment anything on any blog. For more info, watch this video and do read the comments in the comment section: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgsNKS7VGVQ
And if you think this blog posts spam posts for bait as you said, Unsubscribe and don’t follow us. As simple as that.
Good luck!
Using the access key method seems to no longer work. The error message ‘This document no longer has a Flash embed’ appears. In the past it worked with Firefox & IE but it would seem no longer. It never seemed to work with Chrome or Opera. Looks like Scribd has closed the loophole 🙁
The third method definitely doesn’t work anymore. Firefox just asks if you want to download “ScribdViewer.swf”.
What about read only books on scribd? There’s no download option just join membership to read complete book.
thanks bro its working and i have downloaded many pdf today
Good Luck!
Method 1 still works.Sept 7,2017 Thanks!
Cheers!
tried method 3, after placing the url it said. document has no longer flash embed
Use IE instead of Chrome or Firefox.
Nice Bro, Love you man
Thanks for the love! Cheers!
Used method 1 today on chrome and it worked perfectly. Thank you! Ps.: You have to change the adress for the copied one BEFORE you click on Done. You won’t upload anything at all, as you will re-enter the page of the book you want without clicking on done at the upload page. That’s how it worked for me.
Thanks! Will update!
Books can’t be downloaded. If you want a document, use method 1.
Share and sub!
When I try to install your script in greasemonkey, I get an error message…..
Line: 9
Char: 1

thanks a lot
Hey, what do you use for the “What’s your reaction?” thingy?
It’s for us to express our reactions to this post.
Method 1 works fine for me. Thank you for sharing this great idea
Method 3 didn’t work. I followed all the steps, but when I enter the url, it downloads a .swf file. Help please!
Super man. got it
Same problem with the 3rd method, it downloads a swf file.
The uploader has been changed to pick only local files and no longer web address. Also the changing key and doc id method downloads only swf files. 🙁 Neither works
Thank you for your post. I succeeded with the first method.
Method 1 works for me very well. I tried method 3, but i couldn’t get any headway. With method 1, it is kudos to you.
Awesome. The first step is great!
thanks a lot guys..
https://www.scribd.com/document/267520124/QRG-ME-pdf
tried all 3 but cant download this one…please help..
Does not work and has not worked for years. Will never work again.
It did work for many, working since 2014 and will keep working until blocked by Scribd.
You might be missing some crucial step. Try again!
Laughing my head off right now. I did everything as instructed in the first step, and it completely worked, first try!
Cheers man!
1 & 2 no work, in method 3 long time two wheel moving & showing rendering /saving trees…/typesetting but no ending
Were you able to download what you needed??
Method #1 works like a charm for me as of March 23, 2018. Using latest firefox browser
Thanks for the feedback!
I drop a leave a response when I appreciate a post on a site or I have something to valuable
to contribute to the discussion. It’s a result of the sincerness displayed in the post I looked at.
And after this post How to Download Documents from Scribd
for free – 3 Tricks. I was moved enough to drop a commenta response 😉
I do have a couple of questions for you if it’s allright.
Is it just me or does it give the impression like a few of these remarks look
as if they are coming from brain dead folks? 😛 And, if you are writing at other sites,
I would like to keep up with you. Could you list the complete
urls of your shared pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
You can find them on the top of web page or at the end of the post in About Author section. Thanks!
I wouldn’t use any software that ends with -Monkey, because last time I did, it installed the searchanysearch manager malware into my laptop, and it’s irritating to remove…
I’m using an adblocker on Chrome, opened up something on scribd that should’ve been a preview-only document (as it was on my IOS device), and it wasn’t! It seems permanent (for now)… which is fantastic!
Thanks for sharing CM!
I’m not a bot, first step really works.
I can tell. Thanks!
Does this only work if the book is set to download? Option 3 gave an error message on loading.
You can’t download book with any of the trick except Trial. If you wish to download or read book from Scripd, get start trial.
Other tricks works well for downloading documents from Scribd.
That was really really really helpful. I really appreciate the help.
I used the first method, tried the second and third, which didn’t work!
25th Jan 2019, for reference
Thank a lot for your great help. You are really believe in “sharing is caring”. devid.
The first method worked flawlessy. Super useful and will save me a lot of money! Thank you very much! 🙂
Most welcome, Sylvia!
I have a new method，download scribd documents by the website: scrdownloader.com

Worth reading until the last..coz only he 6th worked out for me 😀 thanks
Yeah….every method works differently and for different people.. since 2015!

Hello
I use my Facebook account to communicate with Scribid
After I press the on ( download ) the page tells you to choose the way either your registered email, Google account, or Facebook.
Immediately the download continues but some files are being stubborn ( documents ) and alarming message comes out telling ( Download the document Your download has started.
Having trouble downloading? Try again … …and if try 1000 times it will not proceed and no download you get. This is the trouble . Some said ” You need to pause your antivirus protection as well as the Fire-Wall , but no good result ever .
Great article, good steps. Thank you for this.
Thanks for the comment and appreciating!
Working first variant. Thank you a lot!
