I have quite wide pdf document which is rotating automatically inside PDF Viewer component.  
So is it possible give rotate commands on PDF viewer?  
In activeX compnent this works but I would like use PDF viewer for usable of other that MS clients.

Sorry, no, that PDF viewer is a no-frills viewer. You’ll have to rotate the PDF files themselves I guess. I’ll move this thread to the feature request forum - this should be something that we can add someday, but I can’t promise when.

The PDF Viewer module on the [module marketplace](http://marketplace.inductiveautomation.com/moduledetail?7&moduleId=48) supports rotation.

Try code like:

```auto
pdfViewer.controller.documentViewController.setRotateRight()
```
