ABSTRACT:
In a document processing apparatus, transport means feed a document along a track past one or more processing devices such as scanning means or printing means. The apparatus includes first and second corrugating rolls (44, 45) between which a document is fed. The rolls (44, 45) are arranged to produce a plurality of corrugations (122) in the document (120) prior to the document reaching the processing device or devices. The corrugations (122) are shallow, being not more than one millimeter in depth, these corrugations (122) producing satisfactory stiffening and straightening of the document (120) while having no adverse effect so far as reading information from, or printing information on, the document (120) is concerned.
