Rotate PDF pages
Correct pages that were scanned sideways or upside down. Rotate the whole document at once or fix individual pages, then save a PDF where the correction is permanent rather than a temporary view setting.
Or drop one anywhere on this page

How to rotate PDF pages
- 1

Drop the file in and every page is rendered as a thumbnail so you can see which need turning.
- 2
Rotate the pages
Turn all pages together, or click individual pages to rotate just those in 90 degree steps.
- 3
Save the result
Download a PDF in which the rotation is stored in the file itself.

Where your file goes
Nowhere. This tool runs inside your browser, and the page is served with a policy that forbids it from sending your document anywhere. You can confirm that yourself: open your browser’s developer tools, watch the Network tab, and process a file.
Questions
- Why does my PDF look rotated in one app but not another?
- PDF pages carry a rotation property that some viewers apply and others ignore. This tool writes the corrected orientation into the page itself, so it displays the same way everywhere.
- Can I rotate only some pages?
- Yes. Click any individual page thumbnail to rotate just that page. Pages you do not touch are left exactly as they were.
- Does rotating reduce quality?
- No. Rotation changes a page property only. The page content is not re-rendered or re-encoded, so quality is identical to the original.
- Can I rotate only the pages that are sideways?
- Yes, and that is the usual case. Click any individual page in the grid to turn just that one. Use the rotate-everything controls when a whole document was scanned the wrong way round.
- Does rotating change the file size or quality?
- Neither. Rotation sets a property on the page; the content underneath is not re-rendered or re-encoded. The output is the same size and the same quality as the original.
- How is this different from rotating in my PDF reader?
- Most readers rotate the view only, and the document opens the original way round next time. This writes the corrected orientation into the file, so it stays that way for everyone who opens it.
- Can I rotate a scanned document?
- Yes. A scan is a picture on a page, and rotating the page rotates the picture with it. Nothing is re-encoded, so the scan does not soften.
- What happens if I rotate a page twice?
- Each click adds 90 degrees and wraps around, so four clicks return the page to where it started. The grid shows the current orientation, and the change is only written when you save.
