How to Rotate PDF Pages
Upload a PDF, select one or more pages and choose left 90 degrees, right 90 degrees or 180 degrees. The preview updates immediately and the exported PDF receives actual page rotation values.

The interface is designed to keep the active PDF workflow near the top of the page, while this guide explains what the tool changes, what it preserves, and where a different PDF tool is the safer choice.
Rotate One or Several Pages
Selection controls support all, odd, even, invert and typed page ranges. This makes it practical to fix only scanner pages that were captured sideways while leaving the rest unchanged.

Existing Rotation Matters
PDF pages can already have 90, 180 or 270 degree rotation. New rotations are added to the current value and normalized into 0, 90, 180 or 270 degrees instead of blindly replacing the old setting.

Quality
Page content is not rendered into images for standard rotation. Text, vectors and source images remain in the PDF page content, so rotation itself does not intentionally lower resolution.

Rotation runs locally using the selected file bytes. No PDF upload is required.

Troubleshooting
If a page still looks wrong after rotation, it may contain content that is visually rotated inside the page rather than using the page rotation property. In that case a visual editing or scanning workflow may be more appropriate.
