Rotate PDF files when previewing them

I'm not looking to actually edit the PDF, simply rotate the view so I don't have to turn my head sideways to look at a table that is printed landscape. No 3rd party app should be needed, and I shouldn't need to download the PDF to be able to do this.

    My apologies. Just realized I can do it if I open to edit the file.

    Hey beccaborn, thanks for reaching out to us.

    Are you referring to the preview of a PDF file on the Dropbox mobile app?

    If so, which version of the app are you using? And what's your device's OS and version?

    Thanks.

        No worries, Becca, glad to know.
