About the Rotate PDF

Tezmy's Rotate PDF tool fixes scans and documents with pages that are sideways or upside down. Rotate every page, or only the pages you choose, by 90° right, 90° left or 180°, and save the PDF so it opens the right way everywhere, not just in one viewer. The content and quality of each page stay exactly the same. It all runs in your browser, so your documents stay private.

How to use the Rotate PDF

  1. 1Click Select PDF file, or drop your PDF on the page.
  2. 2Choose the direction: 90° right, 180° or 90° left.
  3. 3Rotate all pages, or type the page numbers to rotate.
  4. 4Click Rotate PDF and download the fixed file.

Why PDF pages end up sideways

Scanners and phone scanning apps often save landscape pages, like tables, certificates or wide forms, turned on their side. Some documents also mix portrait and landscape pages. Rotating them here saves the correct direction inside the file, so the pages open the right way in every PDF viewer, email app and printer.

Rotate all pages or only some

  • All pages: fix a whole scan that came out sideways or upside down.
  • Selected pages: type the pages to turn, like 2, 5-6, and leave the rest as they are.
  • 90° right, 90° left or 180°: turn sideways pages upright, or flip upside-down pages.

Other quick fixes

Remove blank or unwanted pages with Delete PDF Pages, and join several scans with Merge PDF. Rotating never changes the content or quality, so you can combine these tools in any order.

Rotate PDFs on iPhone, Android or computer

There's no app to install: open this page in Safari, Chrome or Edge, select the PDF, choose the pages and direction, and download the fixed copy. The rotation is saved inside the file, so it opens the right way for everyone you send it to, and your document never leaves your device.

Fix mixed scans

If only some pages are sideways, type just those page numbers, like 3, 7-8, and rotate them. Run the tool again with a different direction for pages that are turned the other way. Upside-down pages from a double-sided scan need a 180° rotation. To split pages first use Split PDF, and the Delete PDF Pages tool removes what you do not need.

Frequently asked questions

Will the rotation be saved?

Yes. The rotation is stored in the PDF itself, so the pages open the right way in every PDF reader, email and printer.

Can I rotate just one page?

Yes. Choose “Only some pages” and type the page number, for example 3, or a list like 1, 4-6.

Does rotating reduce quality?

No. Rotation only changes how the page is displayed. Text, images and links stay exactly the same.

My scan has pages facing different ways. What should I do?

Run the tool once for each direction: for example rotate pages 2, 5 by 90° right, download, then rotate other pages of the new file by 90° left.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Everything happens in your browser.

How do I rotate a PDF and save it?

Select the PDF, choose the direction and which pages to turn, then download the new file. The rotation is saved in the PDF itself.

Can I rotate a PDF on iPhone?

Yes. Open this page in Safari, select the PDF from Files, rotate it and download the corrected copy.

Is it free?

Yes. There's no sign-up, watermark or page limit.

Does rotating change the file size?

No, or only by a few bytes. Rotation is saved as a setting on each page, so the content isn't re-created.
