Abstract
Method and apparatus for guiding a moving tape having a tape edge parallel to a direction of motion of the tape wherein the tape is received tangentially on a curved surface having an edge. Force applied to the tape is increased as the tape drifts farther away from a nominal position so as to move the tape away from the edge of the surface. Lateral motion of the tape is dampened by breaking up an air-cushion between the tape and the curved surface.
