An image-reading apparatus expands a scanning area along a side at each of both ends in a width direction and a longitudinal direction of a paper P, when reading an image on the paper P fed into it by an image-reading unit comprising scanner heads 7a and 7b, in order to embrace the paper P entirely within the scanning area even when the paper P passes the image-reading unit while in a skew orientation, thereby enabling the apparatus to read the image without any defect, including the image in a marginal portion of the paper P.
