Engineering Philosophy

Perfect Orientation.
Zero Data Loss.

Rotating a PDF shouldn't mean rewriting it. Many tools re-save the entire document, which can degrade images and break fonts. We take a different approach.

Our backend uses PyMuPDF to modify the internal rotation metadata of your PDF pages directly. This means the content itself — text, images, and vectors — remains untouched. Only the "viewing angle" property is updated.

This "metadata-only" approach ensures that your rotating actions are lightning fast and preserve 100% of the original document quality. Secure, fast, and precise.

The Ultimate Guide to Rotating PDFs

We've all been there: you scan a contract or a stack of papers, and half of them come out sideways or upside down. Opening and rotating them in a viewer works temporarily, but the next time you open the file, it's wrong again.

PDF Rotate permanently fixes the orientation of the pages in your file. This ensures that whoever you send the document to sees it correctly the first time, without having to crane their neck or rotate it themselves.

Key Terminology

Portrait

Vertical orientation. The height is greater than the width. Standard for docs.

Landscape

Horizontal orientation. The width is greater than the height. Good for charts.

Degrees

The unit of rotation. 90° is a quarter turn. 180° is a half turn (upside down).

Metadata

Information about the file (like rotation angle) that doesn't affect the actual content.

Tips for Best Results

Visual Verification

Always open your rotated PDF in a viewer after downloading to ensure the orientation is correct before sharing it professionally.

Saving Original

Keep a copy of your original file. While our metadata rotation is lossless, it's always good practice to keep the source file unchanged until you confirm the edit.
