Frequently asked questions
Can I rotate only one page?
Use the page editor to select and turn the pages that need correction.
Will the rotation stay after download?
Yes. The corrected orientation is saved into a new PDF, not just changed in your viewer.
Does rotation blur a scanned page?
The page is rotated without rendering it to a new low-resolution image; a scan remains limited by its original resolution.
What is the maximum free file size?
Guests can upload files up to 25 MB each. A free account raises the limit to 50 MB per file, and Premium allows 500 MB per file with larger batches.
Is this usable on a Mac or Windows PC?
Yes. Open the tool in a modern browser on macOS or Windows; no desktop PDF app is needed.
