The properties of continuous-variable teleportation of single-photon states are investigated. The output state is different from the input state due to the nonmaximal entanglement in the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen beams. The photon statistics of the teleportation output are determined and the correlation between the field information β obtained in the teleportation process and the change in photon number is discussed. The results of the output photon statistics are applied to the transmission of a qubit encoded in the polarization of a single photon.
