Learn about this tool
Rotate PDF to fix documents that are horizontal, upside down, or incorrectly oriented after scanning. Upload a PDF and then choose a rotation of 90 degrees clockwise, 180 degrees, or 270 degrees clockwise. The chosen angle will be added to the current orientation of each page, and then the tool generates a new PDF file for you to download.
This setting applies to all pages in the document and there is no option to select individual pages. The tool works best when all pages are rotated in the same direction. If only some pages are incorrectly rotated, extract those pages to process them separately and then merge them back in the correct order. You can also use another editing process that supports selecting specific pages.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Rotating 270 degrees clockwise gives the same result as rotating 90 degrees counterclockwise. This option is suitable when the document is tilted to the right and needs to be oriented for straight reading. Check the preview to determine the current orientation because the selected angle will be added to the existing rotation of each page.
The current PDF Rotate tool does not support rotating individual pages. The selected angle is applied to the entire document. If the pages have different orientations, you can extract pages 2 and 5 separately, rotate them, and then merge them back in the desired order. Check carefully to avoid changing the original order.
No. The rotation operation only changes the display angle of the entire page, so the text, images, and page size move together. The tool does not reflow lines, change paper size, or rearrange content like an editor. To switch a design from landscape to portrait, you need to adjust the source file or use specialized layout tools.
