Rotate the Pages of a PDF
Straighten a scanned document that's crooked, in one pass for all its pages.
Rotate a PDF is a free tool that runs entirely in your browser, with no data ever sent to a server. Rotate every page of a document by 90, 180, or 270 degrees.
A rotation that re-encodes nothing
Unlike an image, a PDF page isn't redrawn to be rotated: the document simply records the display angle in its metadata. The content therefore stays sharp, including text, whatever rotation is chosen.
Why only 90, 180, or 270 degrees
That's the only constraint of the PDF format on this point: a page's rotation must be a multiple of 90 degrees. A document that's slightly crooked, by just a few degrees, needs a real crop rather than a rotation, which this tool doesn't do.
What this tool does not do
This tool does not support password-protected PDFs. Merging does not preserve bookmarks or form fields, and compression only affects images already in JPEG format inside the document.
Frequently asked questions
Can I rotate a single page of a document?
Not with this version: the chosen rotation applies to every page of the dropped file. For page-by-page processing, split the document first with the split a PDF tool.
Is the rotation cumulative if I rotate twice?
Yes: starting from the already-rotated result and applying another 90 degrees adds up to a total of 180 degrees compared to the original.
Are my files sent to a server?
No: processing happens entirely in your browser, on your device. No file is ever transmitted to a server, at any point.
