Abstract
A document scanning apparatus includes an automatic document feeder having at least a pick-up section for picking up documents to be scanned and a feed-out section which ejects the scanned document. A sensor in the pick-up section detects the length of the document to be scanned. A stamp located at the feed-out section marks the scanned sheets with a stamp and is controlled by a controller which controls the stamp position based on the length information obtained by the sensor in the pick-up section.
