Select PDF files to rotate
Drag and drop the PDF files you want to rotate or click Add to add files. Encrypted PDF files show a icon on their left, click on the lock icon and supply the unlock password.
You can rotate only part of the selected PDF files, double click on the Page ranges cell and specify the pages or page ranges you want to rotate. Pages can be specified in the form of comma separated page ranges like 2-13,17 if you want pages from 2 to 13 and page 17. You can use the syntax 20- if you want pages from page 20 to the end of the file.

An example can be [FILENUMBER] to add an increasing counter value to the file name or [TIMESTAMP] to add the current timestamp to the file name. Right click on the field to find all the available keywords.
