Abstract:

A new document holder and text guide apparatus for indicating any line of text on a document. The inventive device includes a document support member with a planar surface for supporting a document. A lip extends from the document support member for resting a document. A shaft with external threads extends between the ends of the document support member. An indicating member designed for indicating a line of text on a document is mounted on the shaft to permit movement of the indicating member sleeve portion along the shaft when the shaft is rotated. The shaft is rotatable by a motor such that the indicating member is moved along the shaft when the shaft is rotated by the motor. The motor permits selective rotation of the shaft in both a clockwise and a counterclockwise direction for moving the indicating member towards either end of the shaft. A foot actuator is attached to the motor for selectively activating the motor and permitting selection of the direction the motor rotates the shaft. A supporting member supports the document support member upper end when the document support member is rested on a horizontal surface.
