Key Features

100% Browser-Based Processing

All PDF rotation happens directly in your web browser using pdf-lib.js. Your files never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security. No uploads to servers, no data collection, no tracking.

Free and Unlimited

Rotate as many PDF files as you need, with no file size limits or daily usage caps. No registration, no email required, no hidden fees. Completely free forever.

Batch Rotation for All Pages

This tool rotates every page in your PDF by the same angle. Perfect for documents where all pages need the same orientation correction. Maintains original page order and document structure.

Lossless Quality

PDF rotation is a lossless operation - your document quality, fonts, images, and formatting remain 100% intact. File size stays nearly identical since no compression or re-rendering occurs.

Works Offline

Since processing happens in your browser, this tool works even without an internet connection (after the initial page load). Great for working with sensitive documents or in low-connectivity environments.

Instant Results

Most PDFs rotate in under a second. No waiting for uploads, server processing, or downloads. Just instant local processing.

Privacy & Security

Your PDF never leaves your computer. All rotation happens client-side in your browser using JavaScript and pdf-lib.js. We don't store, transmit, or have any access to your files. Check your browser's network tab - you'll see zero upload requests. This makes our tool perfect for confidential documents, financial records, medical files, or any sensitive PDFs that cannot be uploaded to third-party servers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I rotate individual pages instead of all pages?

This tool rotates all pages by the same angle. If you need to rotate specific pages, first use our PDF Extract Pages tool to separate the pages you want to rotate, rotate them, then use PDF Merge to recombine them.

What's the maximum file size I can rotate?

There's no hard file size limit since processing happens in your browser. However, very large PDFs (100MB+) may be slower to process depending on your device's RAM and processing power. Most documents under 50MB process in seconds.

Will rotation change my PDF file size?

No. Rotation is a metadata-only operation that changes how PDF viewers display pages. The actual page content isn't modified or recompressed, so file size remains virtually identical (within a few bytes).

Does rotation affect PDF quality, fonts, or images?

No. Rotation simply changes the viewing orientation without re-rendering or recompressing content. All text, images, fonts, links, and formatting remain pixel-perfect.

Can I rotate password-protected PDFs?

You can rotate PDFs with user passwords (viewing restrictions) if you can open them. However, PDFs with owner passwords (editing restrictions) cannot be modified. Remove the password first using a PDF unlock tool.

Is my PDF secure? Does it get uploaded anywhere?

Your PDF never leaves your computer. All rotation happens client-side in your browser using JavaScript. We don't store, transmit, or have any access to your files. Check your browser's network tab - you'll see zero upload requests.

What if I need to rotate by different angles for different pages?

Use PDF Extract Pages to separate pages, rotate each group separately, then PDF Merge to recombine. Or use desktop PDF editors for per-page rotation.
