Page orientation

Post by bnagel »

How do I save a PDF file with multiple pages so that all the pages are orineted the same rotation. i.e. a set of plans. I have a file that some of the pages are rotated 90 degrees.

Hello bnagel,

To bring all pages to the same orientation you would need to use the "Rotate Pages" tool from the Organize tab, and specify the orientation of pages you wish to alter, as well as the direction you wish to rotate the to resolve this.

If you make a mistake, you can undo the page rotation with ctrl+Z

I hope this helps!

Thanks,
I've done that but, they don't stay rotated when I save and close, then re-open.

Hello bnagel,

Thank you for confirming that, I am unable to reproduce this behaviour in the latest version, So I must ask if you have tried updating first? If not, please verify that you are running build 328.1.

Do also note that the "Rotate View" function on the View tab is not the same function as the "Rotate Pages" function on the Organize tab. If "Rotate View" is the function you have used, it is intentional that the view reverts back after closing and reopening the document, as the file itself is not changed by this tool, only the displayed perception of it.
