We are pleased to announce that German Full-Text patents are now available on Questel•Orbit. The files include:

  • DEFULLA - Applications (Offenlegungsschriften)
  • DEFULLB - Grants (Patentschriften)
  • DEFULLU - Utility Models (Gebrauchsmuster)
  • DEFULLT - German Translations of European Patent Documents (German translations of Claims are also available in EPBPAT)

Each record contains the bibliographic data, abstracts, claims, descriptions and cited references; first-page drawings are available as well.
The current coverage of these files on Questel•Orbit starts in February 2005 and all are updated weekly. In the next few weeks these files will include 2004 and the missing 2005 data, and by the 4th quarter 2005, will include data back to 1987.
Pricing: Free connect time and record display until 2004 data is loaded, then will be priced the same as the other full-text patent files. The German Full-Text patent files will be available within QPAT in the next few weeks.

Patent Delivery Service Version 3.0: Bulk Download, Print and Email
 

Patent Delivery Service, also known as PDS, is our comprehensive electronic patent copy service and has just been enhanced for ease-of-use and the addition of new features for the power user.
The PDS interface has been redesigned making it more intuitive than ever and the downloading, printing, and emailing features have been “bulked-up” saving you time and energy in handling large numbers of patent orders.

  • Bulk Download: Once the patents are in your portfolio, you can now select them and bulk download them onto your computer, instead of having to do this one at a time.
  • Bulk Print: You can now, in one step, print multiple patents.
  • Bulk Email: If one of your customers has requested a number of patents; now they can all be included in one email instead of multiple emails
PDS Version 3
Since PatentDelivery Service is included in QPAT and Qweb and Qweb 2, these enhancements are also available within these services.
