Abstract
An image reading apparatus including a plurality of image sensors aligned in a zigzag shape and a draft carrying unit operated to a draft to carry in a sub scanning direction, the image reading apparatus forming an image data of a total of the draft from image data provided by the respective image sensors. The draft carrying unit is provided to be operated to the draft in a region aligned in a zigzag shape to constitute an inverse phase relative to the image sensor.
