Can I rotate only specific pages while leaving others unchanged?

Yes, you have complete control over which pages get rotated. The thumbnail view displays every page in your document. Click to select individual pages, use Ctrl/Cmd+click for multiple non-consecutive pages, or Shift+click for a range. Only your selected pages receive the rotation; all others remain exactly as they were. This is perfect for documents where only certain scanned pages came through sideways.

Does rotating a page affect the text searchability or copy/paste functionality?

Not at all. Rotation changes only the display orientation of the page content. All text remains fully searchable through PDF viewers, and you can still select and copy text normally. Links, bookmarks, and form fields continue to work as expected. The underlying content structure is preserved—we're just changing how the page is oriented for viewing and printing.

Can I rotate pages in a scanned PDF or image-based document?

Absolutely. Rotation works identically on any type of PDF: scanned paper documents, image-heavy files, or standard text-based PDFs. The tool rotates the entire page content regardless of whether that content is searchable text, embedded images, or scanned page images. Scanned documents that came through the scanner at the wrong orientation are one of the most common use cases for this tool.

How do I fix a PDF where every page is upside down?

Select all pages using the 'Select All' option or Ctrl/Cmd+A, then apply a 180° rotation. The entire document will flip right-side up in one operation. You can preview the result immediately in the thumbnail view before downloading. This commonly happens with documents scanned face-down or with certain printer/scanner configurations.
