Rotate PDF Pages

Why rotate a PDF?

PDFs often come out sideways when they are scanned from a phone, exported from a printer, or created from photos. Rotating your PDF fixes readability, makes printing easier, and keeps pages consistent for uploads, forms, and emails.

Rotating a PDF with GhostConvert is useful when you:

• Need to fix sideways or upside down scanned pages.
• Want a clean, readable PDF before sending it by email.
• Prepare a document for printing without awkward page orientation.
• Standardize a mixed scan where some pages are rotated differently.

The output is a fresh PDF with corrected orientation ready to store, share, or upload anywhere.

How PDF rotation works

1. Upload a PDF from your computer, phone, or tablet.
2. Choose the rotation direction (left, right, or 180°) and which pages to apply it to.
3. GhostConvert updates the page orientation and creates a new PDF copy.
4. Download the rotated PDF and use it like a normal document.

Rotating does not rewrite your text or images it only changes orientation so your pages display correctly.

Tips for best results

• If only a few pages are wrong, rotate just those pages to keep the rest unchanged.
• For phone scans, rotate first, then use Compress PDF if you want a smaller file.
• If your PDF contains mixed orientations, rotate page by page for a clean final document.

Frequently asked questions

Will rotating a PDF affect printing?

Rotating a PDF is specifically useful for printing because it makes pages appear in the correct orientation before you hit print. This prevents sideways output and reduces wasted paper.

Can I rotate scanned PDFs?

Yes. Scanned PDFs are one of the most common reasons people need rotation. Rotating fixes the page orientation without altering the scan quality.

How long are my files stored?

Files are kept only long enough to complete the rotation and provide your download link briefly. They are deleted automatically after a short period as described in the Privacy Policy.
