    How it works

    1. Add your PDF.
    2. Choose how far to turn the pages. Click pages to turn only those; the thumbnails turn too, so you see the result first.
    3. Press Rotate PDF and download the fixed file.

    Why do scanned PDFs end up sideways?

    Scanners and phone scanning apps often save pages in the orientation the paper was fed in. A landscape page fed in the wrong way looks sideways on screen even though the scan is fine.

    Rotating fixes the display without touching the scan itself. If only a few pages are wrong, type just those page numbers and leave the rest alone.

    Frequently asked questions

    Are my files uploaded anywhere?

    No. Everything happens inside your browser, on your own device. Your files are never sent to a server, and you can confirm that in your browser's network tab. Close the tab and they're gone.

    Does rotating reduce quality?

    No. Only the page's rotation setting changes. Nothing is re-rendered, so text and images stay exactly as sharp as before.

    Can I rotate only some pages?

    Yes. Type the pages you want to turn, for example 2, 4-6, and leave the box empty to rotate every page.

    Will the rotation show in every PDF viewer?

    Yes. The rotation is saved inside the file, so it opens the right way up in browsers, phones and desktop readers.

    Is there a file size limit?

    Each file can be up to 100 MB, and up to 300 MB in total. Because the work happens on your device, very large files depend on your available memory. A desktop browser handles them best.

    Can I use a password-protected PDF?

    Not directly. Use Unlock PDF on this site to remove the password (you need to know it), then add the unlocked copy here.
