An automatic feeder for a photographic copying machine includes a housing and a plate for supporting a stack of originals which are consecutively conveyed towards a transparent exposure plate positioned on the copying machine. The feeder is provided with adjustable tappet rollers mounted against the exposure plate to receive a front edge of an original moved along the exposure plate, without damaging the front edge. The plate for supporting the stack of originals includes adjustable stops for adjusting the plate to differing formats of the originals being processed. An adjusting lever connected to the adjustable stops for adjusting the latter is operatively connected to an adjustment device for adjusting the position of tappet rollers along the exposure plate. Pivotable transport rollers are provided to hold the original against the exposure plate. The housing of the feeder is pivotable relative to the housing of the copying machine between an open and closed position.
