Apparatus for transporting documents comprising a first plate member having a document engaging edge along a transport path, for engaging the document on one side thereof; a second plate member having a document engaging edge along the transport path, for engaging the document on the same side as does the first plate member edge; a first drive belt having a document engaging surface along the transport path, for engaging the document on the document's other side; and a second drive belt having a document engaging surface along the transport path, for engaging the document on the same side as does the first drive belt. The plate members and the belts are situated with the first plate member edge, the first belt surface, the second plate member edge and the second belt surface arranged in successive vertically spaced relation such that the belts urge the sheet against the plate member edges when the sheet is engaged by the belt surfaces and the plate member edges.

There is also disclosed a novel track configuration along which upstanding documents may be advanced.
