To search for something in particular, type an author or keyword into the "Search" bar at the top of the screen, click the magnifying glass to search, and then click the Documents at the top of the page to refine your results. Click a document title or image. Scroll through the documents until you find one which you want to download, then click it to view its details.
If there are multiple pages of search results, you can scroll down to the bottom of the page and click next to move to the next page. If the document is available for download, you'll find this button near the top-left corner of the document's preview screen. If the document is not available for download, this button will not appear.
If you're trying to download a document that's only available to Premium subscribers, you'll see the option to sign up for a Premium account instead.

This downloads the file to your computer. Depending on your settings, you may have to choose a download location and click Save to start the download.

When you have previewed a document that requires a subscription for full access, Scribd will prompt you to upload your documents.
You upload a file to Scribd and then Scribd will allow you to free download other documents. Very simple.
We will guide you step by step on how to do it. Please be careful not to upload unauthorized written works. You can upload a personal presentation, research paper, legal document, etc.
A more convenient way is to create a file and type a few words in it for upload. Go to Scribd and sign in with your account. If you are new to Scribd, please sign up with your Facebook, Google, or Email. You can see an Upload icon in the upper right corner of the web page, which is for uploading files to Scribd.
Click on it. You need to prepare a local file before uploading it. 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. Luckily, there are some ways around these restrictions. Though the three methods outlined below are both occasionally hit or miss, they often can be used to bypass the Scribd security and subscription measures, making it easy to view the documents necessary for your next project or paper.
Our first method for downloading Scribd documents on the web relies on uploading a document of your own to a Scribd account to gain access to the document you want to download. Start by heading over to Scribd. 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.
This will redirect you to a page designed to help you set up your Scribd subscription, complete with a day free trial. Doing this requires entering payment information, however, which we want to avoid.
So instead, scroll down until you see Start Uploading near the bottom of this page. Click this text and then the Upload button on the popup that appears. This allows you to upload a document in exchange for another document on Scribd for free. 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.
Alternatively, you can use Google Docs to create a free document on your computer and download it to your device. When your document is uploaded, provide a title for the new file and hit Submit.
A new popup will appear at the top of the screen offering to let you download the original document you wanted to download for free. You should see your downloaded file in your Downloads folder in just a few seconds. Though Scribd also carries full-length novels and other works of fiction, we recommend only using this for nonfiction documents and other sources for your projects, papers, and research. This will open a new tab in your browser, displaying the source information for your Scribd target.
Now head back to the original document page in your browser and look at the URL at the top of the browser. Now, open up a new tab in Firefox. Once your document has finished loading, use the print option to print to PDF, and your document will be saved to your computer. Users have reported to us that their preferred method uses the document upload method listed above. This has been hit or miss with us as well, especially as extensions and plugins age and Scribd continues to update their site.
Install Greasemonkey from the Firefox plugin store, and head over to this site to install the Scribd Greasemonkey extension. There are several of these that exist online, and each may be worth trying until you find the correct one for you.
With your Greasemonkey script installed, you should be able to download Scribd documents within your browser using the download key that appears on the top of the page. In our tests, we found success using the script here , along with some of the scripts on GreasyFork , which also include options to de-blur documents on Scribd.
Unfortunately, the nature of Scribd means that these methods are far from perfect. 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 files.
As always, we update this article once every couple of 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.
