2011/05/07 - Now with ads...
The site receives donations, but not so much. Thank you to the few of you who donate, that's appreciated, really. But donation don't cover the server costs. So let's go with the ads.
2010/07/17 - Donation page added
Few users reported that they were confused by the Paypal donation page. A donation page was thus added to let choose between Paypal and AlertPay.
2010/07/11 - Download page and Ajax
Before, when you clicked the "Rotate PDF" button, the whole process happened in the background and a popup finally appeared to view or download the result document (depending of your browser). That was not pretty.
A download page has been added to make all this good looking. It appears once the original document has been uploaded. Then, an Ajax request takes place so that the page can display a spinner while the document is rotated.
2010/06/23 - Donate button
Yep, there is a Donate button on the homepage. The service is free of charge, and even if the server costs are light, they exist for real. If you want to support us, your help will be very appreciated. Up to you!

2010/06/17 - Press page update
RotatePDF.net was rewarded as one of the Cool Websites and Tools, and that's good!
2010/06/16 - Form style slightly changed
There was wasted space in the form. That could require users to scroll down to see the "Rotate PDF" button.
2010/06/16 - PDF size limit indicated in the home page
PDF size is limited to 10MB. Until now, you had to upload a file to discover that it was too huge... Not very user-friendly. This is now fixed: you can see that right in the front page, before you try to waste time uploading a too big PDF.
2010/06/14 - Press page updated
There were two minor typos.
2010/06/12 - News page added
This page was definitely missing.
2010/06/12 - Fix in "Link to us" links
The '<' and '>' characters were escaped in the text areas, which was the right thing to do from the HTML (and W3C validator) point of view. That was not the opinion of Google Webmaster Tool, which considered 'a', 'href' and friends as keywords of the page.
2010/05/30 - Upload size limit changed to 10MB
The previous upload limit was set to 2MB. That was way too limited. 10MB gives more freedom. If you feel this is still too low, please let us know!
2010/05/07 - RotatePDF.net is online!
A new service was born!
