Rotate PDF pages clockwise, counterclockwise, or 180 degrees, processed locally with pdf-lib in your browser, your document never leaves your device.
Your PDF is processed locally with pdf-lib in your browser; your document never leaves your device. Nothing is uploaded to any server.
Enter "all" to rotate every page, or page numbers and ranges separated by commas. Example: "1-3, 5" rotates pages 1, 2, 3, and 5.
Working…
Sideways scans are one of the most common PDF problems: a landscape document photographed in portrait, a fax received rotated, or a page that was upside down in the feeder. This tool fixes the viewing angle by adjusting each page's rotation attribute with pdf-lib, turning pages 90 degrees clockwise, 90 degrees counterclockwise, or a full 180 degrees.
Rotation works by adding to the angle a page already has, so running the tool twice at 90 degrees produces a 180-degree turn, exactly like a physical page. Because the page rotation attribute is edited directly rather than re-rendering the page, file size stays essentially the same and text remains selectable and searchable. You can target every page at once or just a selection using ranges such as 1-3 and 5.
The whole operation runs locally in your browser; your document never leaves your device. Related jobs: pulling specific pages out (PDF Split), stamping a confidentiality notice across pages (PDF Watermark), or joining several documents (PDF Merge).
No. The tool edits each page rotation attribute directly instead of re-rendering the page, so text stays sharp, remains selectable and searchable, and the file size is essentially unchanged. This is lossless, unlike screenshotting rotated pages.
Yes. Leave the pages field as "all" to rotate every page, or enter page numbers and ranges separated by commas, such as "1-3, 5". Pages you do not list keep their current orientation.
Rotation adds to the angle a page already has. Rotating 90 degrees clockwise twice gives that page a 180-degree turn. Angles are stored modulo 360, so four clockwise rotations bring a page back to its original orientation.
No. Rotation is a display attribute stored with the page, not a crop or resize. A portrait page rotated 90 degrees is displayed as landscape, but the underlying page content and media box are untouched.
No. The rotation is computed entirely in your browser with pdf-lib. Neither the original PDF nor the rotated copy is transmitted to a server, so the tool is safe for confidential documents.
