How to save scan that needs to be rotated in correct orientation

Hi there

++ Adding to the correct answer by Bernd Alheit

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is a freeware application with limited functionality. For more information please check out the help page: https://helpx.adobe.com/reader/faq.html

I don't think your question is idiotic at all.

That is a very valid observation.

I am not sure if Adobe Reader DC allows to edit the integrity of the scanned document like Adobe Acrobat Pro DC would do.

If you have Chrome web browser, would you mind opening the same PDF in that web browser and  test if you can get to save the page rotation from the web browser?

I'm only suggesting this approach to rule out if something is wrong with the PDF itself.

If it works with the web browser but not in Adobe Reader it may be easier to narrow down the issue.
