Rotate PDF

Rotate all pages or selected pages of a PDF by 90, 180, or 270 degrees and download the corrected PDF, processed entirely in your browser.

About Rotate PDF

A PDF rotator changes the orientation of pages in a document. This tool adds 90, 180, or 270 degrees to the rotation value stored for each selected page with pdf-lib and saves the file. The page content itself is not redrawn, so text, links, and image quality are untouched. You can rotate every page or a range such as 1-3, 5. Password-protected PDFs cannot be processed.

How to use Rotate PDF

  1. Choose one PDF file, or drag the file onto the upload area. Nothing is uploaded; the browser reads it locally.
  2. Set "Rotation", "Pages" as needed.
  3. Press "Rotate PDF" and wait for the result to appear.
  4. Save the result with the download button, or copy the text where the tool returns text.

Questions about Rotate PDF

Is the rotation saved permanently in the file?

Yes. The new orientation is written into the PDF, so it opens rotated in every reader and prints that way. This differs from the rotate view button in a reader, which only changes what you see.

Can I rotate just one page of a scanned document?

Yes. Type that page number in the pages field, for example 4, or a list such as 2, 5-7. Pages you do not list keep their current orientation.
