How it works

1

Upload the PDF

Drop the file with sideways or upside-down pages into the upload area.

2

Pick the angle

Choose 90 for a quarter turn clockwise, 180 for upside-down fixes, 270 for a quarter turn the other way.

3

Download the fixed file

The rotation is written into the PDF itself, so the file opens the right way up in every viewer.

Rotation that survives sharing

The frustrating thing about a sideways PDF is that it often looks fine on your screen. Your viewer rotated it for display, you sent it off, and the recipient opened a document lying on its side. The view rotation lived in your app, not in the file.

This tool changes the page orientation stored inside the PDF itself. Every page is turned by the angle you choose, the change is permanent, and the file opens correctly in Adobe Reader, macOS Preview, browsers, phones and print dialogs alike. Because only orientation metadata changes, the operation is instant and the quality and size of the document stay identical.

Scans, faxes and photographed documents

The usual suspects are batch scans fed in landscape, double-sided documents where every second page ends up upside down, and phone photos taken with the paper turned. Rotate the file here, then continue the cleanup: split off the pages you need, merge multiple corrected scans into one document, or compress the result if the scanner produced a huge file.

Frequently asked questions

How do I rotate a PDF and keep it saved that way?

+

Viewer apps often rotate only the on-screen view, and the file goes back to sideways when you share it. This tool writes the rotation into the PDF, so it opens correctly everywhere.

Which angle do I need?

+

If the top of the page points left, rotate 90. If the page is upside down, rotate 180. If the top points right, rotate 270. If in doubt, try 90 first; you can always run the file again.

Does rotating affect quality?

+

No. Rotation only changes page orientation metadata inside the file. Text, images and file size stay exactly as they were.

Why do my scans come out sideways?

+

Sheet-fed scanners and phone scanning apps store the image the way the paper was fed, not the way the text reads. Landscape-fed pages then open rotated by 90 degrees in PDF viewers.
