Best use cases

Worked example

Sideways scan correction example

A user with a PDF where pages 3 and 4 were scanned sideways can enter `3-4`, choose `90°`, and export a corrected version without touching the other pages.

• Use a narrow page range if only a few pages are wrong.
• Open the result once after download to confirm the direction is correct.
• Repeat with a different angle if the source pages were upside down instead of sideways.

Rotate PDF is strongest when page content is fine and only the viewing orientation needs correction.

Methodology

• The tool opens the selected PDF in the browser and applies a new rotation angle to each chosen page before saving a fresh output file.
• Rotation is cumulative from the page's current orientation, so already-rotated pages are adjusted relative to their existing angle.
