Hi Support,
Is there a way to rotate by 180° (90/-90) only those pages in a PDF document that have the page rotation property set to /Rotate = 180, while leaving all other pages unchanged?
In other words, I want to apply a 180° rotation only to pages currently marked with /Rotate = 180, effectively removing that rotation setting.
The affected pages are not consecutive, and not all pages in the document have this setting.
Can this be done in a single operation, without manually selecting each page?
p.s.
Seems I'm asking for something like "Pages of XY Rotation":

Re: Rotate only pages with /Rotate = 180
Hello, zarkogajic
I am sorry to say, not at the moment. I believe this is an intentional limitation, due to the confusion which is caused by page rotation values not always reliable lining up with the visible content - offering the option to rotate all 180/d rotation pages might give in expectation that they will all be upright, when in many cases, the pages were simply scanned upside down, and thus exist at 0/d rotation instead.
I will pass on the suggestion, but I cannot promise an implementation at this time.
Kind regards,

Hi Dan,
Thanks. As with any option the user should know what the option is really for
I'll close the topic hoping it will be implemented at some future point...
