Rotate PDF pages when a scan or phone capture landed sideways or upside down and readers should not have to tilt their screen.
Turn every page, only odd or even pages, or a single page — 90° at a time — and reset anytime before you export. PDFPeach writes rotation into a new local PDF; nothing is uploaded.
How to rotate PDF pages
- Upload a PDF.
- Choose all pages, odd/even, or a single page, then rotate 90° as needed.
- Download the rotated PDF.
Preview thumbnails update as you rotate so you can confirm orientation before creating the file.
Why rotate in the browser
Desktop viewers often rotate for display only; the next person still opens a sideways page. Embedding rotation in a new PDF fixes the file itself without a remote editor.
- Targeted selection — All, odd, even, or one page.
- 90° steps — Match portrait/landscape needs without guessing angles.
- Reset before export — Clear rotations if you overshoot.
- Private and free — Files never leave your device; no account required.
When to rotate PDFs
Rotation options
| Mode | Use when |
|---|---|
| All pages | Whole document is consistently wrong |
| Odd / even | Duplex or alternate sheets need different treatment |
| Single page | One thumbnail is out of line |
Each click rotates the selection by 90°. Repeat until the preview looks correct, then export.
Rotate vs flip
- Rotate — Turns the page around its center (orientation change).
- Flip — Mirrors left↔right or top↔bottom without the same “turn the paper” motion (Flip PDF Pages).
Privacy
Rotation is applied locally when you create the PDF. PDFPeach does not upload or retain the file.
Frequently asked questions
Can I rotate only one page?
Yes. Choose single-page mode, select the page, and rotate it 90° at a time.
Can I undo rotations before downloading?
Yes. Use Reset to clear all rotations, then adjust again if needed before you create the PDF.
Does rotation change my original file on disk?
No. You download a new PDF with the rotations embedded. The original stays as it was.
Are files uploaded to rotate them?
No. Processing runs in your browser only.
My page looks mirrored, not sideways — what now?
Use Flip PDF Pages for horizontal or vertical mirroring. Use rotate when the content simply needs to turn upright.
