<p data-start="168" data-end="183">Hey Jarojaro,</p>
<p data-start="185" data-end="490">That sounds like the second page might have a different page orientation or rotation setting embedded in the PDF metadata. Even if both pages <em data-start="331" data-end="337">look the same, one of them could actually be rotated 90° or 180° internally — so when you apply the watermark, it follows the page’s stored rotation value.</p>
<p data-start="492" data-end="713">You can check this by opening the PDF in something like Adobe Acrobat, PDF-XChange Editor, or even a command-line tool like <code data-start="624" data-end="633">pdfinfo. If one page shows a rotation value (e.g., “Rotate: 90”), that’s the culprit.</p>
<p data-start="715" data-end="730">To fix it, try:</p>

<li data-start="731" data-end="811">
<p data-start="734" data-end="811">Flattening or normalizing the page rotations before applying the watermark.</p>

<li data-start="812" data-end="910">
<p data-start="815" data-end="910">Using a tool or script that explicitly sets rotation to 0° for all pages before watermarking.</p>

 
<p data-start="912" data-end="1007">Once both pages have the same rotation settings, the watermark should appear consistently. 👍</p>
