Frequently asked questions

Why would I mirror a PDF?

Iron-on transfer paper and some stencil and screen-printing workflows need the design printed as its mirror image; a scanner or a phone camera occasionally saves a page reversed; and a design sometimes wants its mirror twin. This tool does that in one step.

Does mirroring lose quality?

No. The page content is wrapped in a mirror transformation rather than redrawn, so text stays text and images keep every pixel - and bookmarks, links and form fields survive too.

Flip, rotate or reverse - which one do I need?

Flipping mirrors the page: horizontal swaps left and right, vertical swaps top and bottom, and both together look like a 180° turn except the text is mirror-written. Pages that are simply upside down, say after a scan fed the wrong way, need turning, not mirroring: Rotate PDF turns them 180°, and Auto-rotate PDF finds and fixes them for you. If it is the page order that runs backwards, last page first, use Reverse Pages.

Is the PDF uploaded?

Nothing is uploaded: the file is opened and processed inside your browser and never leaves your device. Close the tab and it is gone.

Can I mirror only some pages?

Yes - select the pages first, the way you would for rotating, and only those are mirrored. With nothing selected the whole document is flipped.

What happens on a page that is already turned sideways?

The mirror follows what you see, not what the file stores. On a page turned 90 degrees, horizontal means the left and right of the page as it is displayed, so the result is what you expect from looking at the thumbnail.

Can I use a Word, Excel or PowerPoint file, or a photo, instead of a PDF?

Yes. Drop in a .docx, .xlsx or .pptx file or an image (JPG, PNG, WebP...) and it is turned into a PDF in your browser as it arrives - an image onto an A4 page - then handled like any other PDF; nothing is uploaded. The conversion is our own, so the result can differ slightly from Office's own PDF export: a font may be substituted and charts are left out. The file list shows a warning when something couldn't be carried over.

Missing something, or did the result surprise you?
