Ever scanned a document and it came out sideways? Or received a PDF where pages are rotated the wrong way? It happens all the time, especially with scanned documents or files created from mobile devices.
Our rotation tool fixes this quickly. Rotate pages 90, 180, or 270 degrees—clockwise or counterclockwise. You can rotate all pages the same way, or rotate individual pages differently. The fix is permanent and saves you from awkward neck craning.
Common Rotation Scenarios
Scanned documents often end up rotated because the paper was fed into the scanner wrong. Mobile PDFs might be portrait when you need landscape, or vice versa. Sometimes you need to flip pages that were scanned upside down.
The rotation tool handles all of these. Rotate once, and the PDF is permanently fixed. No more rotating your screen or tilting your head.
How to rotate pages in a PDF
Upload the PDF with pages that are upside down or sideways.
Select one or more pages and choose the rotation angle (90°, 180°, or 270°).
Apply the rotation and download your fixed PDF.
Rotation Tips
90 degrees rotates a quarter turn, 180 degrees flips it upside down, and 270 degrees is three-quarters. You can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise depending on which direction fixes your page.
If you're not sure which way to rotate, try 90 degrees first. You can always rotate again if needed. The rotation is cumulative, so rotating 90° twice gives you 180°.
Rotation Questions
Can I rotate different pages different amounts?
Yes, you can select individual pages and rotate them independently. This is useful when some pages are correct and others need fixing.
Does rotation affect image quality?
No, rotation is lossless. It just changes the orientation metadata—the actual content quality stays the same. Your text and images remain sharp.
What if I rotate the wrong way?
Just rotate again in the opposite direction. Or rotate 180 degrees to flip it, then rotate 90 degrees the correct way. You can always fix it.
Can I rotate multiple PDFs at once?
Yes, you can upload multiple PDFs and rotate pages in each one. Each PDF is processed independently, so you can apply different rotations to different files.
