Abstract
Feeding apparatus for embossing machines that produce printing plates for address printing machines, identification means, and the like, is provided with a plate carriage on which a plate holder is mounted. The arrangement is such that the printing plates can be moved into two directions which are perpendicular to each other. One of these directions serves for character spacing within a print or read line, the second direction serves for line spacing. A discharge mechanism is provided for conveniently removing printing plates from the apparatus after embossment thereof.
