There are two common cases when it comes to flipping PDF images. Case one entails rotating a PDF image, where each page is an image itself. For this, you can use our rotate tool. On the other hand, if you need to rotate a single image, you can always extract the image from the PDF, rotate it with the free image editor that comes with your device, and insert it back into the PDF document.
How To Flip a PDF Image Online
Go to the Rotate PDF image tool.
Upload the PDF file by dragging it into the box.
Click “Left” or “Right” to flip vertically or horizontally.
You can do this for each page or rotate them all at once.
Click “Apply Changes” and download your rotated PDF!
How to flip a PDF image with Smallpdf.
Rotating works like a charm if each page of the PDF file is an image itself. It doesn’t matter if you’ve exported a file to PDF format, or if it is a scanned PDF, the output will still be the same. Since you’re on a free PDF processing platform, try out our other 20+ tools to split, merge, and modify portable document formats—whatever it is that you need.
How To Flip a Separate Image?
This case is a bit more complex, as it can be difficult to edit a unique part or element of a PDF page. First, we’d recommend using the PDF to JPG tool to extract the image from the PDF file. When you upload a PDF to the image converter, choose to “Extract single images” rather than “Convert entire pages.”
Once you’ve done this, you can rotate the image on your PC from any image handling tool, such as Preview on Mac. Any computer should have a default image editor to crop or flip digital photos. And finally, you can insert the image back into the PDF file, using our Edit PDF tool. There are two articles that we’d suggest you read to help you with this:
- How to insert an image into a PDF - what you aim to achieve
- How to white-out content in a PDF - for cleaning up after the image insertion
