With iLovePDF you can select each individual page of your PDF and rotate it by 90°, 180°, or 270°. The rotation is permanently saved in the document as soon as you click “Rotate”.
Important! With the PDF tool “Split PDF” you can only rotate the entire document. If you want to rotate individual pages within the PDF, add or delete pages, please use the PDF tool “Organize PDF”. ilovepdf.com/en/organize_pdf After uploading, all pages are displayed as a preview so you can see exactly which page you want to adjust.
Yes, you can rotate the complete PDF with just one click. iLovePDF offers a function that aligns all pages simultaneously. Ideal for incorrectly scanned documents. The selected orientation (90°, 180°, or 270°) is uniformly applied to all pages. After saving, the new orientation remains permanent. The file is then immediately available for download or sharing.
Yes, you can use the Mobile App for free on your phone at ilovepdf.com/en/mobile (iOS / Android). The tool also works directly in the internet browser on your phone and tablet.
Another option is to convert your documents offline , meaning not via the online service, but locally on your device. This option is available for Mac and Windows: ilovepdf.com/en/desktop. Additionally, you can download the iLovePDF app from the Microsoft Store.
Large PDFs can also be edited (limit 100 MB). If you reach the limit with very large files, it is recommended to compress the file beforehand (ilovepdf.com/en/compress_pdf) or remove unnecessary pages first (ilovepdf.com/en/organize). Another option is the paid iLovePDF Premium subscription (file limit: 4 GB).
Yes. Scanned PDFs or image-based documents can be rotated easily, as iLovePDF rotates the pages as image surfaces. The quality remains fully intact; no new artifacts or distortions are created. This feature is especially ideal for incorrectly scanned material. The rotation is saved permanently and appears correctly on all devices after downloading.
Important: With the PDF tool “Rotate PDF”, you can only rotate the entire document. If you want to rotate individual pages within the PDF, add or delete pages, please use the PDF tool “Organize PDF”. ilovepdf.com/en/organize_pdf
Yes. When you rotate the file with iLovePDF and then save it, the changed orientation is permanently written into the PDF. Hence, the rotation is correctly visible in all PDF readers.
This distinguishes iLovePDF from simple viewer rotations, which are only visual. You don’t need to do anything else after editing; the document remains properly aligned.
No, the quality remains unchanged. Rotating only changes the page orientation, not the text or image content. iLovePDF saves the rotation losslessly, without additional compression or quality loss. Even scanned images remain true to the original. The file size usually does not change as a result.
Not within the “Rotate PDF” tool itself, but iLovePDF offers other specialized features for this. After rotating, you can simply switch to the “Organize PDF” tool to move, delete, or reorder pages.
Both functions work seamlessly together and you don’t need to upload the file again. This way, you can fully edit your PDF step by step. If you want to rotate individual pages within the PDF, add or delete pages, please use the PDF tool “Organize PDF”. ilovepdf.com/en/organize_pdf
