ABSTRACT:
Positive registration of an original document to the edge of a copier platen (12, 108, 208) together with unidirectional feeding across the platen is provided by intermittently pivoting the platen. Document sheets transported by document transport belts (36, 101, 202) in a movement path over the transparent copying window (12, 108, 208) of a copier and over a fixed edge member (30, 112, 220), are registered and then fed by intermittently slightly lifting with a non-imagable electrical drive (18, 102, 212) one end (20, 106, 216) of the transparent window adjacent the fixed edge member. This interposes and intermittently removes a document sheet obstructing registration surface (66, 114, 218) in the movement path of the document. The fixed edge member (30, 112) can provide manual document registration on the platen without requiring retraction for automatic document feeding.
