1Upload the images that came out the wrong way round.
2Pick a quarter turn or a half turn, or type an arbitrary angle and choose a colour for the corners it will expose.
3Apply the rotation; the pixels and the orientation flag are reconciled so every viewer agrees on which way is up.

Rotate Image FAQ
Can I rotate a whole batch in one go?
+
Yes. The same rotation is applied across every file you upload, which is the practical fix for a folder of scans or camera output that all came in the wrong way round.
How does Rotate Image turn the file?
+
Concretely, right-angle rotations take the lossless path wherever the source format allows it, and only arbitrary angles resample, so a mixed batch is not needlessly re-encoded. Quarter turns and half turns are the common case and take the cheapest path available for the format.
Anything specific to Image I should know?
+
Yes — the pipeline reads the real format from the file header rather than the extension, so a mislabelled upload still works. It is the kind of thing that explains why a file looks right in one application and wrong in another.
Why does my file look correct on my phone but sideways elsewhere?
+
Because the orientation is stored as an EXIF flag rather than in the pixels, and not every viewer honours it. Rotating here normalises the two — the pixels and the flag end up agreeing, so the file looks the same everywhere.
Which image formats does Rotate Image accept?
+
All of the common ones — JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, TIFF, SVG, ICO, PSD, JFIF and HEIC. You can mix formats freely in one batch; each file is identified from its header and routed to the right decoder.
Is there a file size limit on Rotate Image?
+
Yes: free accounts process images up to 25 MB each regardless of which image format you brought; ImageMagick, libjpeg-turbo, libpng and libwebp do the actual work. The cap is per file, so a batch of twenty 5 MB photos is fine even though the total is well over the limit.
Will Rotate Image lower the quality of my images?
+
That depends on what you brought. A lossless source (PNG, BMP, TIFF) round-trips exactly; a lossy one (JPG, WebP, GIF) is already the product of one quantisation pass and only re-encodes if the operation genuinely requires it.
Can I run Rotate Image on several images at once?
+
Yes, and mixing formats in the batch is fine — settings are applied per file with the right decoder for each. Free accounts run one file at a time; a pass removes that.
Why does a EPUB site host Rotate Image?
+
EPUB.to is built around the open eBook format — XHTML in a zip, reflowable by design, and readable on hardware nobody has thought about the layout for. A book is a zip full of markup, images and fonts, so almost every job people bring to an eBook site is really a job on one of those things. Rotate Image runs on the same upload and the same account as the conversions because that is where it is needed.
What should I do with the result once Rotate Image is finished?
+
The converter on this site moves books between EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, PDF and DOCX, so a title ends up on whatever hardware is actually going to read it. Doing that after Rotate Image means the conversion is made from the version you settled on, not from the one you were still fixing.
Is Rotate Image here the same tool the sibling sites run?
+
The engines are shared — the same toolchain, the same workers, the same limits. What a EPUB site adds is a view on reflow: which of these operations a reflowable book genuinely supports, and which ones only make sense on the fixed-layout media inside it. It also starts from one fact about the format this site is named after: the book is a zip of XHTML with a manifest, so the text costs almost nothing and every decision that matters is about the embedded images and font subsets.
Do I need an account, and does anything get kept?
+
No account, and nothing is kept: uploads are deleted from the workers shortly after the job finishes, nothing is read and nothing is indexed. Free accounts exist for history and batch size, not for access.
