About this tool

This happens most often with scanned documents — a scanner or phone camera saves the page in the wrong orientation, and every page in the resulting PDF ends up sideways or upside-down. This tool rotates all pages by the angle you choose, directly in your browser, without re-processing or recompressing the actual page content.

Rotation is applied as a page property rather than by redrawing the content, so there's no quality loss — text stays sharp and selectable, and images stay at full resolution.

Common uses include fixing a scanned document that came out sideways, correcting a PDF exported from a mobile scanning app in the wrong orientation, or preparing a document for printing in the correct reading direction.

Frequently asked questions

Can I rotate just one page instead of the whole document?
Currently this tool rotates every page at once, which covers the most common case (a whole scan coming out sideways). For page-by-page control, that's on the roadmap for a future update.
Will rotating reduce quality or make text non-selectable?
No — rotation only changes the page's orientation property. Text stays selectable and searchable, and images keep their original resolution.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No — rotation happens entirely in your browser. Your file is never sent to a server.
