How do I fix a sideways scanned PDF?

Upload the PDF, choose 90° or 270° rotation, select the affected pages, and download the corrected document with pages saved in the right orientation.

Can I rotate just one page?

Yes. Select specific pages instead of rotating the entire document, which is useful when only a few scanned pages are misaligned.

Is PDF rotation permanent?

Yes. The downloaded PDF saves pages in the new orientation. The original upload on your device is not changed unless you replace it.

Yes. Rotate PDF is free to use in your browser with standard usage limits.

Is my PDF uploaded to Scanonix servers?

No. Rotate PDF runs locally in your browser, so your document stays on your device during processing.
