How to unblur Scribd Preview documents
This is what you do:
First copy the link below, and paste it onto your browser.
https://www.scribd.com/embeds/xxxxxxxx/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&access_key=key-fFexxf7r1bzEfWu3HKwf
NOTE: I highlighted the row of letters X in yellow, because it need to be replaced with the actual digits from the Scribd document URL later.
Open a new tab, go to your Scribd Preview document, or the blurred ad-locked article.
For example your document is, "A Modern Man Living Guide To Seduction".
Its URL is:
https://www.scribd.com/doc/76680557/A-Modern-Man-Living-Guide-to-Seduction
NOTE: I highlighted the digits in yellow for a clearer understanding.
Copy out this set of digits, and replace them onto the xxxxxxxx in the link.
Now the link should look like this:
Click on it and see it for yourself.
Here is another example of Scribd document locked by ads.

For instance, this March 1924 Weird Tales magazine, with the feature story, "The Spirit Faker Of Hermannstadt" by Harry Houdini.
Its URL is:
https://www.scribd.com/document/490524115/Weird-Tales-v03n03-1924-03-pdf
Similarly, copy the set of digits (490524115) and replaced it onto the xxxxxxxx of the link.
So you get this:
Click on the link above, and you can view the full 97-page Weird Tales.
To save it, you can either bookmark it to your browser, or save it in the Pocket.
