How do I rotate pages in a PDF using Adobe Acrobat?
There are many reasons why you might want to rotate a PDF. Maybe you scanned your file, but the pages are in the wrong position. Or maybe a page needs rotating for easier printing. It might even be part of a wider PDF edit that includes merging PDFs or converting them into PowerPoints.
Here’s how to rotate a PDF file online:
- Click 'Select files' or drag and drop your PDF from your system into the PDF rotator drop box.
- Pick the PDF document that contains the pages you want to rotate. Adobe Acrobat will automatically upload it for you.
- The pages of your document will be laid out on your screen. From here, you can choose which PDF pages to rotate. You can hand-pick each thumbnail or choose to select all.
- Once you’ve selected your PDF pages to rotate, click 'rotate clockwise' or 'rotate anticlockwise' in the top toolbar. Alternatively, if you move your cursor over a page, you can select to rotate it – you’ll also have the option of deleting pages from your PDF.
- Save your rotated PDF. You’ll then be able to preview, download, and share it via a document link. You’ll also be shown a handful of related tools, so you can keep working on your PDF once it’s rotated.
