On the Internet you can find a lot of documents, various magazines and newspapers in pdf format. This format is very convenient for transferring documents on the Internet, since the pdf file will be read the same everywhere. Also, users themselves can create a pdf file on their computer by printing a file from any program in a virtual pdf printer. But sometimes it turns out that among the many sheets in a pdf file, some of them will not be rotated as you need.

Sheet orientation in a pdf file is not the only problem that can arise. Therefore, questions on the following topics will also be considered:
Editing pdf files
Adobe acrobat rus from the official site
Translation of non-standard sheets into pdf format
Printing a fragment of a pdf file
How to create pdf
What program to open the pdf file

Now you can have a choice, look for a program to edit pdf files or re-print the file in a pdf printer with the correct position of the sheet.

If the number of sheets in the file is small, then re-creating the pdf file, in principle, is not a problem. But what to do when there are more than a dozen sheets in the pdf file. There are many programs for editing pdf files on the Internet, but not every program can rotate a page in a pdf file. If you already have a program for editing pdf files that can at least replace a sheet, you can correctly translate the desired sheet into pdf and simply replace it in the pdf file. An example of such a sheet replacement was considered in the article Editing pdf files with Foxit PDF Editor.

Now we will consider a similar program that will not allow you to change the text inside the pdf file or edit the pictures, but it can expand the sheet in a pdf file and save the result. This program is called PDF-XChange Viewer. You can download it from the website www.pdfxviewer.com.

Let's consider sheet rotation in a pdf file with a specific example. We have a pdf file consisting of two sheets, the first sheet in portrait orientation, the second in landscape orientation. Let's try to rotate the landscape sheet in the pdf file and make all the sheets in portrait orientation. Opening our file, we will see the following:

To rotate a page in a pdf file, you need to do just one action. Go to the menu "Document" and select the item "Rotating pages ...".

In the window that appears "Rotate Pages" detailed settings can be made. First, we indicate in the column "Direction" the direction of rotation of the sheet, clockwise, counterclockwise, or even 180 degrees. We indicate the range of pages to which this action will be applied. In our case, we will put the number of the page that needs to be expanded into a pdf file. You can also choose to apply rotation to all sheets, odd or even only. You can also specify that rotation is applied to sheets in landscape or portrait orientation only. After clicking on "OK", the action will be applied immediately, and the file can be saved.

So the next time you open the file, you'll have to rotate it again!
