We've all been there: you scan a stack of documents, only to realize later that half of them are upside down or sideways. Reading a rotated PDF is annoying, but fixing it is incredibly simple.
Why Does This Happen?
Scanners often have auto-detect features that can misinterpret the orientation of a page, especially if it contains charts or landscape images. Sometimes, you might just accidentally feed the paper in the wrong way.
The Solution: Online PDF Rotation
You don't need to rescan everything. You can rotate the digital file in seconds:
- Navigate to the Rotate PDF tool.
- Upload your PDF file.
- Choose the rotation angle (90, 180, or 270 degrees).
- Click "Rotate" and download your corrected file.
Permanent vs. View-Only Rotation
Most PDF readers allow you to rotate the view, but this doesn't save the change. When you close and reopen the file, it's back to being upside down. Using a tool like FastPDF Tools permanently saves the new orientation, so it looks right for everyone you share it with.
Conclusion
Don't crane your neck reading sideways documents. Fix them instantly with our free rotation tool.
