The free Reader does not allow you to modify PDF files. There is no way around that. Rotating a page permanently would require you to save the modified data back to the PDF file, and therefore does not work in Reader. Changing the view is something that happens only in your viewer, and nothing gets written back to the PDF document on our disk, and that's why this works in Reader as well. As was explained before this was never possible in Reader, so I don't understand why you claim that

There is a simple way to permanenetly save a rotated Adobe Reader file. After rotating the view, save the file with a different file name. Then you can delete the original unrotated file and if you want, you can rename the new rotated file with the same name as th original unrotated file. Did it in less than a minute.

There is a simple way around it: Go to Preferences, Documents, checkmark 'Restore last view settings when reopening documents'.

This works but not if you save the file after rotating it. With the "Restore last view" checked the file will reopen with the rotation last viewed when you just close the file.

I just had a glitch where my document flipped itself while I was using it. Obviously this would indicate a glitch, and lead someone to think that Adobe, "Wants you to pay for those features..."

I don't get why your sarcastic tone over text was utilised. Obviously this person had a reason to believe their premise

It was probably just the way the document is viewed. Close it and then re-open and it should appear correctly once more. You can also change it back via the View menu bar.

Here's the workaround I found:

 

View > Rotate View > select Clockwise or Counterclockwise to rotate the document whichever way you want

 

File > Print > select Microsoft Print to PDF from the Printer pulldown menu and uncheck Choose paper source by PDF page size under the Page Sizing & Handling section > Print

 

When the Save Print Output As screen appears rename the file and click Save
