Potential Bug: Rotate Selected Pages Not Working

Post by mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap »

I'm having problems using the rotate selected pages feature. Here is a sample document:
US8965236.pdf
Open this document and navigate to page 3 in the thumbnails pane. Right click on page 3 in the thumbnails pane and select Rotate Pages. Select the options in shown in the screenshot below and click OK. Nothing happens. The page does not rotate.

.
Edit: It seems to work if the Pages setting is set to "Current." However, it also does not work when it is set to custom.

Hi,

You will have to modify the orientation-choice in "Subset" of pages.

The pages in your pdf-document are "Portrait Pages" and you select to (only) rotate "Landscape Pages".
In that way it will not work.

So, select either "Portrait Pages" or "Pages of Any Orientation".

Kind regards.

Ah, I missed that setting (and didn't fully understand it's importance). Thanks.
