Rotate PDF

Mixed portrait and landscape pages, upside-down scans, and sideways phone PDFs are common. Rotate selected pages or the whole document permanently so every viewer prints correctly — processed locally in your browser.

How to rotate PDF pages

1. Upload your PDF.
2. Select pages to rotate (or all pages).
3. Choose rotation angle: 90° clockwise, 90° counter-clockwise, or 180°.
4. Apply and download the rotated PDF.

Rotation examples

Phone scan fix

A receipt scanned in portrait appears landscape — rotate 90° so it fits standard print margins.

Mixed appendix

Rotate only landscape charts in an otherwise portrait report.

Duplex print prep

Rotate odd pages 180° so double-sided printing aligns on long-edge binding.

When to rotate PDFs

• Before merge when sources have inconsistent orientation.
• Before printing archival scans.
• When readers ignore rotation metadata and show pages sideways.

Scan pipelines

Fix rotation on each source PDF before merge PDF — otherwise one sideways chapter ruins an entire submission packet.

Rotate subset of pages?

Yes — select page numbers before applying angle.

Encrypted PDFs?
