Abstract

Selective copying apparatus wherein selected portions of a source document are copied onto a copy paper at any position on the copy paper and wherein information is deleted or inserted by the user from an input keyboard. A manually-operated portable scanner is used by the operator to scan a selected portion of the document by placing the scanner at the desired line position and moving the scanner across the document. The scanned image is converted into digital data. A copier responds to the digital data and copies the scanned image onto a copy paper at a line position which is also selected by the operator. Thus, the image selected by the operator on the source document is reproduced at a position on the copy paper which is also separately selected by the operator.
