摘要： A conveying device includes a blower, a wind-permeable sheet material supporter, and a conveyor. The blower blows air toward a sheet material. The sheet material supporter supports a center region of the sheet material from a back side of a blown surface of the sheet material. The conveyor conveys the sheet material through a blowing region blown by the blower, while sandwiching an end region of the sheet material in a sheet-material width direction perpendicular to a sheet-material conveyance direction in which the sheet material is conveyed by the conveyor.
