Rotate
Sideways pages turned the right way up, at the angle you pick, with the page content and the page count left exactly as they were. Only each page's own rotation changes, so nothing is re-encoded and nothing is redrawn. Works on PDFs up to twenty-five megabytes, one file per run. The cost is estimated from that file's own size before anything runs, and uploading it charges nothing at all.
Console
rotate-pdfNothing is charged for uploading, and nothing runs until you press Run. Sign in to load a file and get an estimate first.
Drop your PDF in, or choose it from disk. Uploading processes nothing and charges nothing — the file is read far enough to size it and count its pages, and never far enough to open one.
Pick an angle: a quarter turn clockwise, a half turn, or a quarter turn the other way. Every page in the file turns by the same amount, and the estimate is shown before you commit, so the number you approve is the number you pay.
Run and download. The turned document is yours for thirty days, the file you uploaded is left exactly as it was, and a run that fails costs you nothing.
Questions
Does rotating change what is on the page?
No. A PDF page carries its own rotation as a property of the page, separate from the marks drawn on it, and that property is the only thing this changes. Nothing is rasterised, re-encoded or redrawn, so text stays selectable and vector artwork stays sharp at every zoom — the file's own bytes are rewritten in the process, the way every tool here rewrites its output, but the only thing different about what you get back is that one property per page.
What if some pages are already rotated?
The turn is relative, not absolute. A page already sitting at ninety degrees and turned another ninety comes back at a hundred and eighty, which is what you would expect from turning a sheet of paper twice. A page whose rotation is declared once for the whole document rather than per page is read correctly too, so such a file turns rather than resetting to the angle you chose.
Can I turn only some of the pages?
Not with this tool. Turning a subset means naming which pages, and answering that honestly means looking at the document — which this site does not ask you to do for a document, because a page grid needs the file rendered before you have committed to anything. If the pages in one file need different angles, run it twice with different files or split it first.
What does it cost?
About one and a third credits per megabyte, plus a small flat amount per file. A two megabyte document costs three credits and the largest file this tool takes costs thirty-four. The angle you choose does not change the price: the same bytes are read and written whichever way the pages end up facing. The price follows the bytes, and nothing about when or how often you run it.
Do I need an account?
To run a job, yes. Reading this page does not require one. Signing in is one tap with Google, Apple or GitHub — no password and no email confirmation step — and the files you already uploaded are still there when you come back.
What happens to my files?
Inputs are deleted twenty-four hours after upload and results after thirty days. Deletion means the object is removed from storage, not hidden from your history.
