Abstract
An optical scanning device comprises a rotatable polygon mirror (40), or another deflection system, which is arranged between an objective system (30) and the surface (61) to be scanned. In order that the image point (21) moves along a straight line across the surface (61), a correction system is provided which comprises two unidirectionally curved mirrors (51 and 52), the first (51) of which has a hyperbola-cylindrical shape and the second (52) has a parabola-cylindrical shape.
