A gentle bending corner is formed at a junction area between the curve feeding path and the horizontal feeding path. The motor outputs a forward torque or a converse torque. The movable document guider is rotatably positioned near the gentle bending corner. The actuator is rotatably positioned near the gentle bending corner. The transmission structure is connected among the motor, the feeding roller and the actuator.
