An automated document feeder for use with an image forming apparatus such as copy machine comprises a document feeder for feeding the document and a document support for supporting the document. The document support can occupy any one of three positions; a first position where the document on the document support is kept away from the document feeder, a second position where the document on the document support is in contact with the document feeder, and a third position where the document is out of contact with the document feeder but closer to the document feeder than the document at the first position.
