An inkjet recording apparatus, comprising: a first conveyor configured to nip and convey a sheet along a conveying direction orthogonal to an up-down direction; a platen disposed downstream of the first conveyor with respect to the conveying direction and comprising a plurality of first rib portions that extend along the conveying direction and spaced apart from each other with respect to a first direction orthogonal to the up-down direction and the conveying direction, wherein the platen is configured to hold the sheet by upper ends of the first rib portions; a recording head disposed above the platen and configured to eject ink droplets from nozzles onto the sheet held by the platen; a plurality of first pressing portions disposed upstream of the nozzles with respect to the conveying direction and spaced apart from each other with respect to the first direction, wherein each of the plurality of first pressing portions disposed between each of the plurality of first rib portions with respect to the first direction, wherein lower ends of the plurality of first pressing portions is configured to come into contact with an upper surface of the sheet held by the plurality of first rib portions and the lower ends of the first pressing portions are located lower than the upper ends of the plurality of first rib portions; a plurality of second conveyors disposed downstream of the plurality of first rib portions with respect to the conveying direction and spaced apart from each other with respect to the first direction at respective positions corresponding to the plurality of first rib portions with respect to the conveying direction, and wherein the plurality of second conveyors is configured to nip and convey the sheet; and a plurality of second pressing portions disposed downstream of nip points of the second conveyors with respect to the conveying direction and spaced apart from each other with respect to the first direction at respective positions corresponding to the first pressing portions with respect to the conveying direction, wherein lower ends of the plurality of second pressing portions is configured to come into contact with the upper surface of the sheet to be conveyed and the lower ends of the second pressing portions are located lower than the nip points of the plurality of second conveyors characterized in that the plurality of second pressing portions is disposed such that a distance between the plurality of second conveyors and the plurality of second pressing portions in the conveying direction is shorter than a distance between the first conveyor and lower ends of the plurality of first pressing portions in the conveying direction. a first conveyor configured to nip and convey a sheet along a conveying direction orthogonal to an up-down direction;
