About This Tool
Rotate PDF turns pages in your document by 90, 180, or 270 degrees. Fix incorrectly oriented scans, rotate landscape pages, or adjust page orientation for viewing.
Rotate all pages uniformly or select specific pages to rotate individually. The tool preserves all content and formatting.
All processing happens in your browser, ensuring your documents remain private.
Look through the thumbnails before rotating, since scanned documents often have only a few sideways or upside-down pages mixed in with correct ones. Rotate just those pages instead of the whole file. Landscape pages such as wide tables or charts are often intended to be landscape, so leave them alone unless they read sideways. Once the orientation is right, download the file so the fix is saved in the PDF itself rather than only in your viewer.
Many PDF viewers can rotate a page on screen, but that change disappears when you close the file or send it to someone else. TokPDF writes the new orientation into the document, working locally in your browser with WebAssembly. Your scans are never uploaded, the change is applied in moments even for long files, and it works the same on a desktop browser or a phone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I rotate different pages differently?
Yes, you can apply different rotations to different pages.
Does rotation affect print quality?
No, rotation preserves all content quality.
Can I rotate by custom angles?
Rotation is limited to 90-degree increments (90, 180, 270).
How do I rotate a PDF and save it permanently?
Load the file, rotate the pages you need using the thumbnails, and download the result. The rotation is written into the new PDF, so it stays correct in every viewer and when you email it. Rotating only in a viewer usually is not saved.
How do I rotate just one page in a PDF?
Click the rotate control on that page's thumbnail instead of using the rotate-all option. Repeat for any other pages that need it, then download the file. All other pages keep their original orientation, so a single sideways scan can be fixed without touching the rest.
Can I rotate a PDF on my phone?
Yes. Open tokpdf.com in your mobile browser, load the PDF, and tap the pages you want to turn. The rotated file downloads to your phone. No app is needed since the work happens in the browser.
Why does my PDF still look sideways after rotating?
Make sure you opened the downloaded file rather than the original. Also check that you rotated in the right direction; a page turned 90 degrees the wrong way needs another 180 degrees. Some viewers cache the old version, so reopening the file can help.
