About PDF Rotator
This PDF rotation tool rotates pages by 90, 180 or 270 degrees per page or for the whole document, fixing common problems like wrong scan orientation, landscape phone-photo exports and reversed duplex-print output. Under the hood it changes each page's rotation property directly rather than redrawing content, so there is no resampling or compression and output quality exactly matches the original — text stays selectable, copyable and searchable. You can preview each page, set a per-page angle, rotate all pages at once, or target only the wrong pages via a page range. A quick field guide: sideways scans usually need 90° or 270°, upside-down phone exports and duplex reverses need 180°, and converting landscape slides to portrait uses 90°. Rotating an already-rotated page stacks the angles, so 90° then 270° restores the original orientation. Everything runs locally in your browser via WebAssembly with no upload, making it a privacy-safe fix for organizing scanned contracts, receipts and book chapters.

Use Cases
- Fix Scan Orientation — Scanner or phone exports occasionally come out sideways - rotate 90° or 180° to restore correct reading direction.
- Mixed Orientation — When a document mixes landscape pages, rotate the landscape ones 90° to unify everything to portrait for continuous reading and printing.
- Duplex Print Correction — Duplex printing can flip the back side upside down - rotate 180° to fix it so bound pages read correctly.
- Targeted Page Rotation — When only some pages are wrong, rotate just those by page range without affecting the rest.
- Slide Deck Adjustment — Rotate a landscape slide PDF to portrait to fit portrait displays or portrait printing.
FAQ
Does rotation reduce page quality?
No. The tool changes the page rotation property rather than redrawing content - no resampling or compression - so output matches the original quality.
Can I rotate only some pages?
Yes. Specify pages by range (e.g. `1-3,5`); only those pages rotate while the rest stay unchanged.
Is 180° rotation supported?
Yes: 90°, 180° and 270° are all supported. 180° is common for fixing upside-down pages; 90°/270° for landscape-portrait conversion.
Can I rotate back after rotating?
Yes. Rotating an already-rotated page stacks the angles - e.g. 90° then 270° equals 360°, restoring the original orientation.
Is text still searchable after rotation?
Yes. Rotation only changes the direction property; the PDF's text layer is fully preserved, so text stays selectable, copyable and searchable.
Can I batch-rotate multiple PDFs?
This tool focuses on precise single-file rotation with per-page control. For batches, process files one at a time.
