NAME

       pdf270 - rotate the pages of pdf files

SYNOPSIS

       pdf270 [OPTION [OPTION] ...] [SRC [PAGESPEC] [SRC [PAGESPEC]] ...]

DESCRIPTION

       pdf270  rotates  the pages of files in the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) through 90
       degrees (clockwise).

       If no source PDF file ('SRC') is specified, input is from  /dev/stdin.  If  'PAGESPEC'  is
       omitted, all pages are processed.

       Source  files  are processed sequentially into a single output unless the '--batch' option
       is used, in which case they are processed separately.

       pdf270 operates on one or more PDF files, and (either with the '--batch'  option  or  with
       '--outfile  DIR'  where  'DIR'  is  a  directory)  the  resulting  files  have  the suffix
       'rotated270' applied to their names by default.  To change the suffix, use the  '--suffix'
       option, for example

              pdf270 --suffix '-turned' --batch myfile1.pdf myfile2.pdf

       will result in files named 'myfile1-turned.pdf' and 'myfile2-turned.pdf'.

       pdf270 is a simple wrapper for pdfjam, which is a front end to many of the capabilities of
       the pdfpages package for pdflatex.  A working installation of pdflatex with  the  pdfpages
       package is required.

       pdf270   is   part   of   the   "PDFjam"   package   of   tools,   whose  homepage  is  at
       http://go.warwick.ac.uk/pdfjam.
