Convert Your Paper to iPaper

You mail us your documents

We scan and OCR them

The world reads them

Convert Your Paper to iPaper is a program at Scribd where we will scan your paper documents and publish them on the internet completely for free. You just send us the documents in the mail - we'll take care of the rest.

Is this really free?

Yes. We offset the cost of scanning by serving relevant advertisements on scanned documents.

What kinds of documents can you scan?

Scribd uses highly advanced scanning technology provided by our partners to scan and OCR documents at high volume. Our scanners can scan almost any written documents, but be sure to contact us for details about your particular materials.

How do I participate?

Email with information about your paper documents. Please include an estimate of the number of pages you have. A Scribd representative will reply with information about how and where to mail the documents.

Are there any additional restrictions?

Yes. To use the "Convert Your Paper to iPaper program", you must:

  1. Have full legal rights to any content you send us.
  2. Not be in a hurry. It will take time - weeks, at least - to get your content scanned.
  3. Agree to have your content published on Scribd.com.

Also, please realize that Scribd may choose to not scan materials at our discretion, and that this program will be available for a limited time only.

Advanced book-scanning technology scans your books without disbinding
