Documentation

The PDF Auto Rotate Correction tool reads the PDF text layer locally in your browser, detects sideways or upside-down pages from text direction, and creates a corrected PDF.

Use Cases

  • Scanned contracts, invoices, or forms include sideways or upside-down pages.
  • Merged PDF files contain pages with inconsistent orientation.
  • Pages need to be fixed before printing, archiving, or submitting documents.

Tips

  • Text-based PDFs work best because detection depends on the text layer.
  • Scanned image-only pages may be marked as unknown.
  • Use global mode when most pages share the same direction and unknown pages should follow the majority.

Notes

  • Files are processed locally in the browser and are not uploaded.
  • This tool corrects page orientation in 90-degree steps. It does not deskew scanned pages by arbitrary angles.
  • Encrypted PDFs must be decrypted before processing.
