Frequently Asked Questions

What rotation angles are supported?
The tool supports 90° clockwise, 90° counter-clockwise, and 180° (upside down) rotations. These cover all common orientation corrections.
Can I rotate only specific pages?
Yes, you can specify page numbers or ranges (e.g., "1,3,5-10") to rotate only those pages, leaving others unchanged.
Will rotating affect PDF quality?
No, rotation is a mathematical transformation that doesn't degrade quality. Text and images remain sharp after rotation.
