Why rotate PDF pages?
Fix Orientation
Correct sideways or upside-down pages in scanned documents and camera captures.
Per-Page Control
Rotate individual pages independently — landscape pages in a portrait document, for example.
Permanent Rotation
Rotation is saved into the file itself, so it displays correctly in every PDF reader without viewer adjustments.
How it works

Drop your PDF or click to browse. The page grid loads automatically.
Select Pages
Click pages to select them, or use "Select All" to rotate the entire document.
Rotate
Click 90° Left, 90° Right, or 180° to apply rotation to selected pages.
Download

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I rotate only some pages?
Yes — select individual pages by clicking them, then apply rotation. Only selected pages are affected.
Is the rotation permanent?
Yes — rotation is embedded into the PDF file and applies in all viewers, not just a display preference.
What rotation angles are available?
90° clockwise, 90° counter-clockwise, and 180°. You can apply multiple rotations to reach any angle.
Will image quality be affected?
No — PDF page rotation is a metadata operation. Images and text are not resampled or re-encoded.
About this tool
