Your version is extremely old, but it should be possible with it. See: Rotate single page in Acrobat 8
It's not possible with Reader.

I think you are rotating the PDFs from View and rotate. it would only change the current View of the PDF.
Kindly click on Tools on the right hand side > Pages > Rotate. then save the PDF.
Let me know if it helps.

You were right. I was rotating from “View” tab.
Your suggestion helps a lot.

I received a pdf file that is upside down. Rotated and saved in the View tab. When I open the file, it is still upsided. How to solve this problem in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional or Adobe Acrobat Reader DC?
I tried with Tools but there is no Pages option in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.

Can this be done with PDF Reader? I don't have Adobe. I have PDF Reader.

No. Reader can only rotate the view, not the actual pages.
