Tip: rotation only changes each page's orientation — content is untouched, so quality and file size stay the same.

How to rotate a PDF

  1. Add your PDF. Click the drop zone (or drag & drop) and select the PDF with wrongly-oriented pages.
  2. Pick a rotation. Choose 90° clockwise, 90° counterclockwise or 180°, and decide whether to rotate all pages or only specific ranges (e.g. 1-3, 5).
  3. Press "Rotate & Download". Your browser applies the rotation locally using the open-source pdf-lib library.
  4. Save the result. A rotated.pdf downloads instantly — it opens the right way up in every reader.

Why PDFs open sideways

📱 Phone scans

Scanning with a phone camera often saves pages sideways or upside down. Rotating fixes the orientation permanently, unlike a reader's temporary "view rotation".

🖨️ Mixed documents

Contracts and reports sometimes mix portrait text pages with landscape spreadsheets. Rotate only the landscape ranges and leave the rest alone.

💧 Zero quality loss

Rotation flips an orientation flag on each page — text and images are not re-rendered, so nothing gets blurrier and the file barely changes size.

🖼️ Images inside PDFs

If the pages themselves are portrait but the scanned images inside are rotated, use PDF to JPG, rotate the images, then JPG to PDF to rebuild the file.

Rotate PDF FAQ

How do I rotate a PDF that is sideways?

Add the PDF above, choose 90° clockwise (or counterclockwise), and press Rotate & Download. Every page is permanently re-oriented, so the saved file opens correctly in any reader.

Can I rotate only some pages of a PDF?

Yes. Enter page ranges like 1-3, 5 under "Pages to rotate" — only those pages are turned. Leave the field on "All pages" to rotate the whole document.

Will rotating reduce the PDF quality?

No. Rotation only changes each page's orientation metadata — the content itself is not re-rendered, so there is zero quality loss and the file size barely changes.

Are my PDFs uploaded anywhere?

No. Rotation happens entirely in your browser with the open-source pdf-lib library. Your files never leave your device.
