When a scan or photo-to-PDF comes in sideways, rotating it right (90° clockwise) sets it upright so it reads and prints correctly. This tool rotates pages clockwise and saves the new orientation permanently into the PDF — not just for the current view — so the fix sticks no matter who opens it next. You can rotate every page at once or only the specific pages that came in wrong, which is common when a document mixes portrait and landscape scans. The rotation is lossless: it changes orientation without re-compressing or degrading the page content, and it all happens in your browser without uploading the file.

## How it works

1. **Upload PDF** — Select or drag and drop the PDF file you want to rotate
2. **Choose Angle** — Select rotation: 90° (right), 180° (flip), or 270° (left)
3. **Download** — Get your rotated PDF with corrected orientation

## Use cases

- **Fixing Scans**: Straighten sideways scanned documents
- **Phone-Captured PDFs**: Correct pages captured in the wrong orientation
- **Mixed-Orientation Files**: Rotate only the landscape pages in a portrait document
- **Print Prep**: Ensure every page prints upright

## Tips

- **Clockwise 90°**: Rotate right turns pages 90° clockwise — run it twice for 180° upside-down fixes.
- **Saved Permanently**: The new orientation is written into the file, not just shown in your viewer.
- **Target Pages**: Rotate only the sideways pages when a document mixes orientations.
- **Lossless**: Rotating doesn't recompress the page, so quality is untouched.

## FAQ

### Does rotate right mean clockwise?

Yes, it rotates pages 90° clockwise. Apply it twice to flip a page a full 180°.

### Is the rotation saved into the PDF?

Yes — the orientation is written permanently into the file, not just for your current view.

### Can I rotate just some pages?

Yes. Rotate the entire document or select only the specific pages that are sideways.

### Will rotating reduce quality?

No. Rotation is lossless and doesn't recompress your pages.

## Problems solved

- Sideways scanned documents
- Wrong-orientation phone captures
- Mixed portrait/landscape PDFs
- Pages printing on their side

## Stats

- **90°** clockwise rotation
- **Saved** permanently in file
- **Lossless** no quality change
