Abstract
A photoelectric reading apparatus comprises a linear image sensor, an optical system for causing characters or figures on the surface of paper such as an original to be imaged on the light-receiving surface of the linear image sensor, index mark means for indicating the area of the surface of the paper to be recorded to adjust such area, and a circuit for reading, of output signals produced by the linear image sensor, a signal corresponding to the area indicated by the index mark means.
