Rotate by Custom Degrees

Rotate PDF pages by any angle. Precise custom rotation for straightening scanned documents.

About This Tool

Rotate by Custom Degrees turns the pages of a PDF by any angle you type, such as 2 or 45.5 degrees, and by a different angle for each page if you wish.

A page turned by a quarter, a half or three quarters of a turn is only marked as turned; nothing else in the file changes. At any other angle the page is redrawn, turned, on a larger page that holds all of it, and the document is rebuilt: its bookmarks, form fields and properties are lost, and so are the links and comments on the turned pages. Text stays text; it is not made into a picture.

Everything happens in your browser; the file is not uploaded.

How to Use

  1. Upload PDF

    Upload the PDF file containing pages you need to rotate.

  2. Set Rotation Angle

    Type an angle in the box under a page, or change it one degree at a time with the - and + buttons. To give every page the same angle, type it beside "Set all pages to:" and click "Apply to all".

  3. Preview and Adjust

    Each thumbnail turns as you set its angle, so you see the result before you apply it; the first 50 pages have one.

  4. Apply and Download

    Click "Rotate PDF", then "Download".

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I rotate by decimals, e.g., 45.5 degrees?

Yes. Type the decimal into the box, for example 45.5. The - and + buttons change the angle by one whole degree.

Does this affect the page content?

The content is kept as it is, text included; it is not turned into a picture. At an angle that is not a multiple of 90 the page becomes larger, so that the turned page fits inside it with empty corners, and the document's bookmarks and form fields are lost, as are links and comments on the turned pages.

Can I rotate just one page?

Yes, you can set a custom rotation angle for any individual page while leaving others unchanged.
