Rotate PDF

A PDF rotator turns pages that are sideways or upside down. This one rotates every page or only the pages you select by 90° clockwise, 90° anticlockwise or 180°, and saves the rotation permanently. It runs in your browser; downloading needs a free account.

This tool rotates a PDF's pages by 90°, 180° or 270°, fixing the orientation without needing to rescan anything. Scanned documents come out sideways or upside-down more often than anyone would like — a phone held the wrong way, a scanner fed a page in landscape when the document is portrait.

Every page is shown as a live thumbnail. Use the "Rotate all" buttons to spin the whole document, or click individual pages (or select several at once) and rotate just those. Each preview updates immediately to show exactly what will be saved, and rotation stacks on top of whatever orientation a page already has — so you can nudge a sideways page further if one pass isn't enough.

The rotation is a page-level property recognised by every PDF viewer, not a re-render of the content, so text stays sharp and selectable, and file size is essentially unaffected. As always, this runs entirely in your browser — scanned IDs, contracts and reports never leave your device to get straightened out.

This is a quick fix for a problem that otherwise sends people back to a scanner or a phone camera: a handful of sideways pages in an otherwise fine document. Fix the orientation here, then move straight into merging, reordering or numbering if the corrected file needs further assembly.
