PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a heat developing apparatus where, though the number of parts can be reduced and its miniaturization is possible, the unevenness in density can be suppressed, and a film sheet can be stably carried. SOLUTION: The heat developing apparatus is provided with: a heating means comprising a first zone 50 composed of fixed guides 51b, 52b having a heater 51c, and counter rollers 51a, 52a pressing a film toward the fixing guides and arranged at the upstream side in the carrying direction, and a second zone composed of a curvature guide 53b having a heater 53c and an another curvature guide 53a, in which a prescribed gap d is formed between the curvature guides, and arranged at the downstream side in the carrying direction; and a cooling means 54 of cooling the film heated by the heating means. The film is guided to the direction opposite to that of gravity via the second zone. Each curvature guide in the second zone guides the film to the cooling means at the position lower than the curvature center thereof, and visualizes the latent image formed on the film.
