RotatePage Method (GdPicturePDF)
Rotates clockwise the currently selected page of the loaded PDF document. The rotation angle can be set to 90, 180 or 270 degrees.
'Declaration
Public Function RotatePage( _
ByVal As Integer _
) As GdPictureStatus
Parameters
- Rotation
- The rotation angle, in degrees, determining the clockwise rotation. This parameter can be set to 90, -90, 180, -180, 270, -270 or any multiple of 90.
Return Value
A member of the GdPictureStatus enumeration. If the method has been successfully followed, then the return value is GdPictureStatus.OK.
We strongly recommend always checking this status first.
How to rotate all pages of your document step by step by multiple of 90 degrees, that means each page is rotated by next (means page number) multiple of 90. You can subsequently determine the actual page rotation.
