Re: Database-Size
Hi Matt, A reply was given from the EPO that the graphical user interface was designed to prevent the user/admin from carrying out such maintenance tasks, for fear of "wreaking havoc" (my own words) with the database schema, and possibly your valuable data. If you want to learn how to admi...

Re: New PatXML version 1.3.4 now available
Version 1.3.5 of patXML is now available. This will support Windows 7 and Word 2007 Http://www.epoline.org/patxml.html You gotta love this quote from the manual : "You can prepare and import your patent applications in Microsoft® Word® and save them in software- and system-independent XML (bas...

Re: Open Office / Who knows more about ?
Thanks for this. I have been looking at whether to go down the Open Office route but support was an issue. Hi Cheryl, Be aware though that PatXML only works with Word DOC (Office97/2000) formatted files or flat XML files as far as I know. There are no XSLT filters publicly/freely available yet for ...

Re: Database-Size
I wonder how many patent firms and departments fill their firebird database to a degree where the application performance really takes a huge dive and leads to the enduser having an overall bad impression of the software itself. Most likely all of those law firms and IP departments who do not have ...

Re: Online Filing platforms
Hi,
My only remark would be to ask that if you do use the .NET framework, please make sure it is at least compatible with Mono :

Re: New PatXML version 1.3.4 now available
Ah, Yussuf, A motivating speech indeed, but in my experience unlikely to change much in the near future, unless the governments that have adopted ODF as their format for document exchange raise the issue and put pressure on the EPO to do something about it. Ultimately, the underlying format of inter...

Re: libGEMSAFE vs. openCS
Errrm, because they (as in the EPO) lacked the guts/foresight/resources/call for tender, to cater for other OSes when they developed the software ? It might be well to remember that at the time the E-OLF system development was launched, in desktop terms, it was either MS or AppleOS, the latter havin...

Re: New PatXML version 1.3.4 now available
Frustration is indeed the Word (TM). And don't get me started on the Gemplus PKCS#11 libraries... Do you folks at the EPO know anything about SIPO's efforts to use OpenOffice.org to import and export SIPO XML compliant data ? Take a look here at what was going on in 2004 : http://marketing.openoffic...

Re:
Hi all, Just an update to this thread. There are now plugins for MSOffice that enable read/write access to ODF documents. Alex Yet another update : Microsoft now offer an in-built ODF converter in MSOffice 2007 with fixpack SP2. Unfortunately, this filter only implements the 1.1 version of the ODF ...
