I came across this article, published today, which I thought might be helpful to those who are running macOS Sierra and wished they had downloaded macOS High Sierra (HS) before macOS Mojave was released.
As most of us know, when a new OS is released, previous versions are usually unavailable for download unless previously "purchased" - and as we also know, not always even then.
I must make clear that what is being described here is the ability to download HS on to a Mac running Mojave - NOT to be used on that Mac as a Downgrade, but the HS Installer can be copied on to a storage device of choice and used to install HS on another Mac.
So this is really for those who wish to upgrade to HS but have missed their chance to do so.

I hope this may be helpful to the few who find themselves in the situation mentioned above.
