I have a scanning program that will write files to the file system then display them in a WebBroswer control. Sometimes the scanner will not auto rotate correctly so the image in the PDF file is upside down. When viewed in the WebBrowser you can rotate the document which is great but I need that rotated document to get saved back to the file system that way. Is there a way to do this? I am not finding anything so far.

Neither PB 2022 or PB 2022 R2's Web Browser control have a SaveAs() method (unfortunately).
In FireFox for example when you are viewing a PDF document ... "At the top right of the PDF Viewer interface, there should be a >> symbol (if you hover your mouse over it, the tooltip should say Tools), click on it. In this menu you should see buttons that allow you to rotate the PDF document as required". Once rotated sufficiently, the select the SAVE button.
So you might want to introduce an APP feature where the current upside down PDF is opened in a Web Browser (like FF). Then have it rotated it 180 degrees & then save it back to disk to that your PB App can now process that PDF file instance. Food for thought.

I thought the Download option might work but again - it does not download how it looks on the screen so I am out of luck there too.
Is there any chance for Appeon to enhance the Bowser Control to offer a 'Save' option that will write the image as it is displayed back to the file system?
