Default Rotate single page in a PDF document

Hi,
I have a 4 page PDF document but would like to rotate one of the pages only
(for the printing process) but can't seem to do this in Acrobat Reader. Is
there any other free program that will allow this?

In Reader where you have Fit Page, Fit Width, Zoom Out- 100% -Zoom
InTHENrotate clockwise, or rotate ant-clockwise Help

In the toolbar across the top.

That only rotates all on the pages in the document. I want to rotate just
one but leave the others.

Print the pages out singly.
But, the one you want to rotate, do in the printer's page setup.
Have it do landscape instead of portrait.

Good try. The reason behind the problem is that we have to pay per page
through the printer and we already have the 4 page (double sided A4 folded)
brochure produced as a PDF. One of the sides needs to be rotated before the
printing so that we only have to have the paper go through twice, thus
saving a lot of money over time.

Lenny,
Here's how I would do it
1) Generate 4 individual PDF pages with the proper rotation
2) Use PDFedit to combine the 4 PDF files into one. (It will cost you
$19.95 I think for the program.

This really has nothing to do with XP.

You need to use a program like Acrobat *Writer*, which is not free, or some
other software that can actually create PDF files. I haven't used it but
PDF Xchange may do what you need at a much lower price. They do have a
demo version.

PDF Xchange looks like it is perfect for the job and only $20. I don't mind
paying for a program but just thought that Adobe Acrobat Pro was a little
expensive to rotate a page.
Thanks for the advice.

Lenny left over a year ago. Perhaps you could review how to use the
features of this software by clicking Help on the menu.

Thanks, I downloaded Foxit Reader, but when I try to rotate, it rotates all
of the pages in the document. Could you tell me how to just rotate one page
in the doc?

Default Rotate single page in a PDF document

I went looking on the net, and found something called
Nitro PDF Professional that claims to have two rotating
capabilities:

- 1 - Temporarily rotate all the pages by rotating the view
- 2 - Permanently rotate various selections of pages

I leave it as an exercise for the student to investigate
further and find out whether this is a good piece of
software, how much it costs (the word "professional"
usually implies extra money), how dependable it is,
and whether it truly does what the original poster wants.
