Abstract

A document handling apparatus/copy sheet processor/finishing apparatus arranged as an integrated system to produce bound copy sheets at high speed but with minimum mechanical activity by double exposing each document sheet, producing successive copy sheets in accordance with the exposure, distributing the successive copy sheets alternately into receiving trays and utilizing a set transport for each of the trays to bring copy sets alternately to a single point binding device.
