  *  MODEL DTD FOR PUBLISHED PATENT DATA                                     *
  *  bibliography, description, claims, abstract, drawings, search report.   *
  *  etc.                                                                    *
  *  This is an EXAMPLE DTD - the model does not imply it is used by any     *
  *  office as such but the tagging of abstract, description, claims and     *
  *  drawings should remain the same as Annex F DTD. For further notes see   *
  *  the WIPO ST.36 standard.                                                *
  *  see: http://pcteasy.wipo.int/efiling_standards/EFPage.htm               *
  *                                                                          *
  *  In developing this DTD we have taken into consideration:                *
  *  - earlier versions of this dtd                                          *
  *  - ST32 version 3                                                        *
  *  - Variations of ST.32 in: WIPO, USPTO, MIMOSA, etc                      *
  *  - USPTO EFS dtd                                                         *
  *  - Trilateral Common data dictionary                                     *
  *  - ISO 12083 dtds, etc                                                   *
  *  - PCT Annex F DTDs                                                      *
  *  All elemenzs are taken from ST.36 ICE (International Common Elements).  *

@scheme-name:
This attribute is used when it is necessary to distinguish between different classification schemes
which may be in use at the same Office.  In general, abbreviated forms should be used where they
are widely recognized, for example scheme-name=”CPC” for the Cooperative Patent Classification.

  Article citations within a 'host' document

  After patent citations the most common citations are articles within serials
  (periodicals, magazines), books and electronic (eg. internet) sources.
  This is a very complex and varied area to standardise. The tag set below is drawn
  from a number of sources as is the order of the tags (which in any case can be
  changed depending on the stylesheet used).;

  The order of tags is that of WIPO ST.14 / ISO 690 layout.

  PATENT CITATIONS:
    (ST.32:B561)
  Patent Citation within abstract, description or claims.
  For patent citations within Search Report see Search Report DTD

  Notes:
    Tags arranged according to WIPO ST.14 order.
    This can be free text data without any structure (text).

  Example:
    <patcit id='pcit0001' dnum='US4793675A' dnum-type='publication number'>
      <document-id>
        <country>US</country>

  Note:
    It is NOT expected that the applicant will create the tagged data
    - it could be generated from a 'pull down' data entry form
    or generated from internal SR databases

  Attributes (recommended):
    id   - pcit0001, pcit0002, etc.
    num  - 0001, 0002, etc.
    dnum - use full number as one string, eg, "US5401234A";
    url  - where possible give full web link to patent
    file - file name eg. if stored on local systems
    dnum-type - type of document number
      (e.g., application number, publication number)

  PCT WRITTEN OPINION OF THE INTERNATIONAL SEARCHING AUTHORITY (ISA)
  (PCT Rule 43bis.1)
  (FORM PCT/ISA/237)

  (The following data is taken from srep-info area):
    - Correspondence address
    - Date of mailing (day/month/year)
    - Applicant s or agent s file reference
    - International application No.
    - International filing date (day/month/year)
    - Priority date (day/month/year)
    - International Patent Classification (IPC) or both national classification and
      IPC
    - Applicant name

  (followed by the text:)

  FOR FURTHER ACTION

  If a demand for international preliminary examination is made, this opinion
  will be considered to be a written opinion of the International Preliminary
  Examining Authority ( IPEA ) except that this does not apply where the
  applicant chooses an Authority other than this one to be the IPEA and the
  chosen IPEA has notified the International Bureau under Rule 66.1bis(b) that
  written opinions of this International Searching Authority will not be so
  considered.
  If this opinion is, as provided above, considered to be a written opinion of
  the IPEA, the applicant is invited to submit to the IPEA a written reply
  together, where appropriate, with amendments, before the expiration of 3 months
  from the date of mailing of Form PCT/ISA/220 or before the expiration of 22
  months from the priority date, whichever expires later.
  For further options, see Form PCT/ISA/220.

  SEQUENCE LISTING
    According to WIPO ST.25: STANDARD FOR THE PRESENTATION OF NUCLEOTIDE AND
    AMINO ACID SEQUENCE LISTINGS IN PATENT APPLICATIONS:
      see http://www.wipo.int/scit/en/index.html
    "The sequence listing as defined in paragraph 2(i) shall, where it is filed
    together with the application, be placed at the end of the description
    part of the application. This part shall be entitled Sequence Listing,
    begin on a new page and preferably have independent page numbering.
    The sequence listing forms an integral part of the description; it is therefore
    unnecessary, subject to paragraph 36, to describe the sequences elsewhere
    in the description." Therefore we create here a separate sub-document for
    sequence listings, it should follow any drawings or the claims.
    It should follow the format of Annex C/ST.25 and be an external file

Grouping tag for patent literature (patcit)

Recommended id='cit0001', 'cit0002', etc.
For the SR: id='sr-cit0001', 'sr-cit0002'

@reference
Identification given by the party to the document, e.g. A1.

@exam-reference
Identification given by the search or examining division to the document,
e.g. D1.

@has-equivalent :
The expected usage of this attribute is that it will only be present in the circumstances where the examiner explicitly
chooses to express the fact that the cited document has no equivalent document / patent family members in the
rendered search report citation; in other words the attribute when present and having the value “no” will result in the text
“No patent family” or “No equivalent documents” in the relevant language being displayed on the search report.

    img-content = drawing is the default;
    img-format  = common will be tiff, st33 and st35 in for backward compatibilty
                  and, later, publication.
    orientation = orientation of the image (portrait | landscape).
                  Default is portrait
    inline      = (yes | no).

  Priority

  1. The following document has not yet been furnished:

  Attribute vakue:
    1 = copy of the earlier application whose priority has been claimed
      (Rules 43bis.1 and 66.7(a)).
    2 = translation of the earlier application whose priority has been claimed
      (Rules 43bis.1 and 66.7(b)).

  Consequently it has not been possible to consider the validity of the priority
  claim. This opinion has nevertheless been established on the assumption that the
  relevant date is the claimed priority date.

  This opinion has been established as if no priority had been claimed due to

  Thus for the purposes of this opinion, the international filing date indicated
  above is considered to be the relevant date.
