badloDid a page scan sideways or upside down? Choose how far to turn it and download a PDF that opens the right way up on every device.
How to use the Rotate PDF
- Upload your PDF.
- Choose the turn, and type page numbers if only some pages need it.
- Download the rotated PDF.
What to expect
All pages or some
Leave the page box empty to turn the whole document, or type pages such as 2, 5-7.
Saved in the file
Unlike turning the view in a reader, the rotation is stored, so everyone sees it the same way.
Nothing is redrawn
Text and pictures aren't converted or compressed, so quality doesn't change.
Why PDF pages end up sideways
Scanners and phone cameras often guess the direction of a page and get it wrong, especially when a page has little text. Landscape tables in a portrait report are another common cause. If you need to reorder pages as well as turn them, use Organize PDF.
Choosing the right turn
Not sure? Try one and look at the result. Your original file doesn't change, so you can start again as often as you like.
| The page looks... | Choose |
|---|---|
| Lying on its left side (top of the page points left) | 90° right |
| Lying on its right side (top of the page points right) | 90° left |
| Upside down | Upside down |
Rotating only some pages
Use commas and dashes, such as 1-3, 7. Spaces don't matter, and each number must be a page in your file. If different pages need different turns, use Organize PDF, where each page has its own turn button.
Frequently asked questions

Can I rotate several PDFs at once?

Is my PDF kept?
Your files are only used for this job and are deleted from the server afterwards.
Does rotating change the quality?
No. Only the page's direction changes.
