1 . A device for sheet stack formation in a sheet processing machine, the device comprising: 
 a stop mounted to be set against a stack edge obliquely relative to a sheet transport direction.    
   
   
       2 . The device according to  claim 1 , wherein said stop is mounted to be adjustably set against the stack edge.  
   
   
       3 . The device according to  claim 1 , wherein said stop is a continuous crossmember disposed substantially transversely relative to the sheet transport direction.  
   
   
       4 . The device according to  claim 3 , which further comprises format adjusting devices, said continuous crossmember being disposed on said format adjusting devices at two sides of the stack.  
   
   
       5 . The device according to  claim 1 , which further comprises format adjusting devices, said stop being disposed on said format adjusting devices at two sides of the stack.  
   
   
       6 . The device according to  claim 5 , wherein said format adjusting devices are drivable independently of each other.  
   
   
       7 . The device according to  claim 5 , wherein said format adjusting devices are drivable in synchronism with each other.  
   
   
       8 . The device according to  claim 7 , which further comprises an additional actuating device for one end of said stop, said additional actuating device being disposed on one of said format adjusting devices.  
   
   
       9 . The device according to  claim 5 , wherein said stop is adjustable manually.  
   
   
       10 . The device according to  claim 6 , wherein said stop is adjustable manually.  
   
   
       11 . The device according to  claim 7 , wherein said stop is adjustable manually.  
   
   
       12 . The device according to  claim 8 , wherein said stop is adjustable manually.  
   
   
       13 . The device according to  claim 5 , wherein said stop is adjustable by a motor.  
   
   
       14 . The device according to  claim 6 , wherein said stop is adjustable by a motor.  
   
   
       15 . The device according to  claim 7 , wherein said stop is adjustable by a motor.  
   
   
       16 . The device according to  claim 8 , wherein said stop is adjustable by a motor.  
   
   
       17 . The device according to  claim 5 , wherein said stop is adjustable manually and by a motor.  
   
   
       18 . The device according to  claim 6 , wherein said stop is adjustable manually and by a motor.  
   
   
       19 . The device according to  claim 7 , wherein said stop is adjustable manually and by a motor.  
   
   
       20 . The device according to  claim 8 , wherein said stop is adjustable manually and by a motor.  
   
   
       21 . The device according to  claim 1 , which further comprises springs exerting a force pressing said stop against the stack edge.
