When to Use 270° Rotation

A 270° clockwise rotation is equivalent to a 90° counter-clockwise rotation. This is useful when your image is turned 90° to the right and needs to be corrected back to its proper orientation. It's one of the three cardinal rotations (90°, 180°, 270°) that are completely lossless.

Other Rotation Tools

Rotate 90° — quarter turn clockwise
Rotate 180° — turn upside down
Flip horizontally — mirror left-to-right
Flip vertically — mirror top-to-bottom
Custom rotator — any angle

Rotating 270 degrees, the anticlockwise quarter turn

Your image needs turning the other way, counter-clockwise by a quarter.

A 270 degree clockwise rotation is exactly the same as a 90 degree anticlockwise one; the two descriptions simply count in different directions. Like any quarter turn it swaps the width and the height, so a portrait file becomes landscape. This is the correct choice when a photograph or scan is lying on its side with the top of the subject pointing to the right of the frame.

When people use this tool

Photos rotated the wrong way by software

Some tools apply a clockwise turn automatically and overshoot; this brings the image back.

Landscape scans of portrait pages

A page scanned sideways with its top edge to the right needs this direction of turn.

Screens and signage captures

Content photographed from a rotated display often needs an anticlockwise correction.

Step-by-step

1 Upload your image. Processing happens in your browser with no upload.
2 Apply the rotation. The image is redrawn rotated 270 degrees clockwise, which is a quarter turn to the left.
3 Verify. If the subject is now upside down, apply the 180 degree tool instead.
4 Download the result. Width and height are swapped in the saved file.

Formats, limits and output

Rotation	270 degrees clockwise, equal to 90 degrees anticlockwise.

Formats	JPG, PNG and WebP.
Quality	Lossless geometric transform; nothing is resampled.

Practical tips

• Work out the direction by looking at where the top of the subject points before rotating.
• Three 90 degree turns produce the same result but re-encode the file three times; use this tool once instead.
• For a batch shot in the same orientation, apply one direction to the whole set.
• Crop after rotating so the frame matches the final orientation.
