How to Fix an Upside-Down PDF Document
A quick fix to permanently correct the orientation of upside-down or sideways PDF pages.
The Quick Fix
If you have an upside-down PDF, you don't need to re-scan the original document. Tuko allows you to fix the rotation flags within the PDF structure itself.
Using the Rotate Tool
- Go to Tuko's Rotate PDF page.
- Upload the file.
- Click the "Rotate Right" or "Rotate Left" buttons until the document is upright.
- Download the fixed file. It will now open correctly on all devices (phones, tablets, and PCs).
