How to rotate PDF pages
- Choose your PDF.
- Pick the direction: 90° clockwise, 180°, or 90° anticlockwise.
- Rotate every page, or only selected pages such as
2, 5-7. - Download the rotated PDF. Your original file isn't changed.
Lossless rotation
Each PDF page has an orientation setting. This tool changes that setting by 90°, 180° or 270°, adding to any rotation the page already has, rather than redrawing the page. So text stays selectable, scans keep their full resolution, links and form fields keep working, and the file size barely changes. Rotating a page four times by 90° brings it back to where it started.
Example: fixing a scan
A 12-page scan has pages 3 and 7 upside down and page 10 sideways (top on the left). Choose 180°, Selected pages, type 3, 7 and download. Then open that file, choose 90° →, type 10 and download again.
Tips
- Not sure which pages are wrong? Organize PDF shows thumbnails, and lets you rotate, reorder and delete pages in one go.
- Photos that come out sideways in a PDF are usually fixed by making the PDF with Image to PDF, which reads the phone's rotation data.
