    How to rotate image with annotations?
    In This Topic
    Raster image (TIFF, JPEG, etc) with annotations can be rotated using
    the AnnotationDataController.RotateImageWithAnnotations method.

    Vector image (PDF page) with annotations can be rotated in 2 ways:
    Here is C#/VB.NET code that shows how to rotate PDF page with annotations, without rastering PDF page, by a specified orthogonal angle.
