Copying apparatus
 A copying apparatus comprises an editor for imputting data for specifying a desired area of a document and designating an edit mode for the specified area, a memory for storing the data of the specified area and data of the designated edit mode, a copying machine for copying an image of an arbitrary area of the document on copy paper and generating an auto-clear signal after a lapse of a predetermined period, and control means for controlling the copying machine based on the data stored in the memory. Thus, when the auto-clear signal is outputted from the copying machine, only the designation of the edit mode in the editor is canceled and the data of the specified area and the edit mode are maintained in the memory.
