1Upload the SVG files 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.
4Download the rotated SVG file.
Rotate SVG 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 SVG turn the file?
+
Concretely, a transform is applied to the geometry and the viewBox is recomputed, so the rotated artwork stays vector and stays editable — there is no resampling anywhere in the path. Quarter turns and half turns are the common case and take the cheapest path available for the format.
Anything specific to SVG I should know?
+
Yes — nothing is sampled: the file is edited as text, so the result is still infinitely scalable and still diffable in version control. 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.
What can I upload to Rotate SVG?
+
SVG files, including ones exported from Illustrator, Figma, Inkscape or a charting library. Embedded raster images inside the SVG are carried through as-is.
Is there a file size limit on Rotate SVG?
+
Yes: free accounts process images up to 25 MB each, which an SVG essentially never approaches — a complex illustration is usually a few hundred kilobytes of text. In practice the thing that makes an SVG heavy is thousands of path nodes from an auto-trace, not the file size, and that is a different problem from the cap.
Will Rotate SVG lower the quality of my SVG files?
+
No, and it cannot: an SVG has no pixel grid to degrade. The geometry is transformed mathematically, so the result is still crisp at any zoom level and still openable in a vector editor.
Can I run Rotate SVG on several SVG files at once?
+
Yes. SVGs are small and parse quickly, so a batch of icons or logos finishes almost as fast as a single file. Settings apply uniformly across the set.
Why does a EPUB site host Rotate SVG?
+
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 SVG 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 SVG 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 SVG means the conversion is made from the version you settled on, not from the one you were still fixing.
Is Rotate SVG 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.
