A facsimile apparatus is provided with an overwrite mode of operation and an append mode of operation. The image data for a document that is to be registered for polling transmission is stored in a memory in a manner which permits the image data to be easily modified, and additional data appended thereto. In the overwrite mode, previously stored data is automatically erased, and new image data is stored in the memory in its place. If the amount of new image data is greater than the amount of data that was previously stored, the additional data is stored in a manner which links it to the area where the previously stored data was located. In the append mode, the new image data is similarly stored in a manner which links it to previously stored data. There is no need to erase or modify the originally stored data in this mode.
