How to rotate a page 90 degrees?

I am trying to use a PDF for stamping and need to rotate it 90 degrees to lay it on correctly? Anyone know how to do this?

Please take a look at the Rotate90Degrees example.

In this example, we create a PdfDocument to get an instance of the document, and just change the /Rotate value in every page dictionary (if there is no such entry, we add one with value 90):

PdfDocument pdfDoc = new PdfDocument(new PdfReader(src), new PdfWriter(dest));
int n = pdfDoc.getNumberOfPages();
PdfPage page;
PdfNumber rotate;
for (int p = 1; p

Once this is done, we use pdfDoc.close() to persist the change.

If you want an iText for C# example, you'll discover that it is very easy to port the Java to C# as the terminology is identical.
