upside-down pdfs usually come from scanning a stack face up in a feeder that expects face down. all pages are flipped for you. if only the back sides were upside down, press reset, then use the odd pages or even pages button twice to flip just those.
after flipping, scroll through the thumbnails once. pages with a landscape layout may need a different turn than the pages around them, and you can set each page on its own before downloading.

frequently asked questions
why are only every second page upside down?
that is typical for double-sided scanning, where the back of each sheet is read the other way up. use the even pages button twice to flip them.
does flipping lose quality?
no. only the rotation setting changes, so text stays selectable and images are not re-compressed.
can i flip a single page?
yes. tap the page twice, or press its rotate arrow twice, and leave the others as they are.
