I am building a simple Django app that will use scribd to display documents. I would like to have a page where the administrator can upload documents to scribd through the website, since I need to know a few things about it before it gets to scribd. What is the best/easiest way to do this, display an upload page and then take the file th...

I just want to be able to display ...
Hello all, Scribd API: http://www.scribd.com/developers For those of you that are aware of Scribd, used it or can take a look at the API above. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to upload documents from my site straight to scribd? I ask because from the API (PHP Implementation) it seems that I have to first ask my users to uploa...
I've got a content management solution where we present scanned images (TIFF), PDFs, word docs for viewing. While we can simply embed a PDF, sometimes depending on user preferences it's a bit fiddly and sometimes not user-intuitive. I'd like a solution like scribd, embedit, etc, but not hosted. I want to run the application on our own s...
The scribd fullscreen mode is pretty neat (example: http://www.scribd.com/doc/13161906/Java-Lab-Manual-With-Java-Installation-Guide?classic%5Fui=1). The advantage (for RIAs specifically) is that it doesn't (almost) completely disable the keyboard the way the 'default' fullscreen mode in Flash Player does. Seems to also work when embedded...
Hi. All recently noticed that PDF documents in Scribd are also SEO friendly for search engines. For example the link http://www.scribd.com/doc/17135767/FREE-by-Chris-Anderson If you open the page and see the HTML source code, the plain text from the PDF is not presented. However if you open the cached version of the page from Google sea...

"'" ?>,...
Recently I have encountered an issue with Scribd where searching via Scribd API (docs.search) for documents by tag is no longer working. This has been working (for over 6 months) to return a number of documents that I have tagged with "fdsafetyandprevention" (accessible here http://www.scribd.com/tag/fdsafetyandprevention).
