About this tool

A focused utility built for a single recurring document task. Selectively batch-rotate even pages, odd pages, or landscape sheets without manual clicking. Perfect for fixing dual-sided scanner inverted pages. Private by design. Processing runs locally in your browser's memory — the document is never transmitted, and closing the tab clears it completely. The workflow is deliberately short: load the file, choose the options on the page, run the operation, and save the result. Every choice is applied before the file is written, so re-running with different settings takes seconds. Practical limits apply (see the on-page limits); it pairs well with the related tools linked beside this page when one step is not the whole job. Key facts — Processing: runs entirely in your browser, client-side; Access: free with no account required; File limits: see the on-page limits; Privacy: the file never leaves the device.

FAQ

How do I fix inverted pages from a 2-sided scanner?

Select 'Even Pages Only' and pick '180° Flip'. This instantly rights all upside-down back pages across the entire document in one click.

Does rotating degrade document quality?

Zero loss. The operation merely updates the native PDF /Rotate flag without re-compressing images or altering page contents.

Can I rotate only landscape pages without affecting portrait pages?

Fully supported. Automatic aspect ratio detection lets you target only landscape pages (or only portrait pages) with a single click.

Does rotation overwrite the original file or create a new copy?

It generates a brand-new PDF file. Your original file remains completely untouched, and you can tweak and re-export as needed.

Can I specify custom page lists or ranges to rotate?

Yes. In addition to even, odd, and orientation presets, you can input custom page ranges with 90° clockwise, 180°, or 90° counter-clockwise turns.
