PDF Orientation Checker
Check whether each page of a PDF is portrait or landscape, and spot any that are the odd one out.
Finding the page that's the wrong way round
In a long document it is easy to miss that one page is landscape among a stack of portraits — a wide table or chart that was dropped in sideways. This checks the orientation of every page and flags which are portrait and which are landscape, so you can find the outliers without scrolling through the whole file.
Drop the PDF in and each page's orientation is reported.
What to do with the odd ones
Once you know which pages break the pattern, you can decide how to handle them. Sometimes a landscape page is deliberate and fine; sometimes it is a mistake that should be rotated to match the rest. Either way, spotting them is the first step — and if a page does need turning, single-page rotation fixes just that one without disturbing the document around it.
How to check the orientation of PDF pages
- Add the PDF.
- See at a glance which pages are portrait and which are landscape.
- Send the sideways ones to a rotate tool if needed.
Catch the odd page out
Before printing or submitting a document, it helps to know whether every page faces the same way. Mixed orientation causes printers to shrink pages or flip them unexpectedly. Checking first tells you which pages need attention.
A consistent orientation is especially important for bound documents and forms that will be filed.
