This section describes how to change the page orientation from landscape to portrait and vice versa in an existing PDF file using Rust via C++.
Rotating pages ensures proper alignment for printing or displaying PDFs in professional settings
- Open the PDF Document.
- Rotate PDF Pages. The rotate function applies a specific rotation (in this case, 180 degrees) to a given page.
- Save Changes to a New File. The save_as function creates a new PDF file to preserve the original while storing the updated version.
In this example, you rotate a specific page in a PDF document:
use asposepdf::{Document, Rotation};
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
// Open a PDF-document with filename
let pdf = Document::open("sample.pdf")?;
// Rotate PDF-document
pdf.rotate(Rotation::On270)?;
// Save the previously opened PDF-document with new filename
pdf.save_as("sample_rotate.pdf")?;
Ok(())
}
