Rotate PDF

About Rotate PDF

Rotate PDF lets you turn pages that were scanned or saved sideways and keep the fix when you download. Drop in a PDF, choose which pages to rotate, and rotate them left, right, or 180° — the new orientation is written into the file, so it stays rotated when you reopen it. Unlike most online PDF tools, everything runs in your browser with JavaScript, so your document is never uploaded anywhere.

Frequently asked questions

How do I rotate a PDF permanently?

Rotate the pages here and download the result — the rotation is written into the page data, so it stays put when you close and reopen the file. That's different from a viewer's temporary 'rotate view', which resets next time.

Is my PDF uploaded to a server?

No. The rotation happens entirely in your browser with pdf-lib; your file never leaves your device, which makes it safe for private or sensitive documents.

Can I rotate only some pages?

Yes. Enter a page range like 1-3, 5, 8-10 in the 'Pages to rotate' box and only those pages turn; leave it as the full range to rotate the whole document.

Does rotating change the file's text or quality?

No. Rotation only changes each page's orientation flag — the text, images, and quality are untouched, and the file stays selectable and searchable.
