How to use Rotate PDF
- Upload one PDF and select the rotation angle: 90° clockwise, 180°, or 90° counter-clockwise.
- Choose whether to rotate all pages or enter specific page ranges.
- Click Rotate pages and wait for processing to complete.
- Review the result summary showing how many pages were rotated.
- Download the rotated PDF and verify page orientations visually.
Tips
- Use 90° clockwise to fix landscape pages that appear sideways in viewers.
- Apply rotation to specific page ranges when only a few scanned pages are upside-down.
- Rotation is cumulative: running 90° twice produces a 180° rotation.

Frequently asked questions
What does Rotate PDF change?
It sets the rotation angle on selected PDF pages so they display in the correct orientation.
Is Rotate PDF private by default?
Rotation is processed entirely in your browser. No PDF data is uploaded.
What does Rotate PDF not protect?
It modifies page rotation metadata but does not redact, compress, or alter visible content.
Limitations
- Rotation changes the page metadata only; it does not re-render or rasterize content.
- Some older PDF viewers may not respect the rotation flag on certain page structures.
