Dear Gloria,
you can find information on Gebrauchsmuster (utility model) on the website of
the German Patent and Trade Mark Office (www.dpma.de). Clicking on "Formulare,
Merkblaetter" and "Gebrauchsmuster" subsequently, you will be lead to the
download area for forms and leaflets
(http://www.dpma.de/formulare/gform.html#gbm). Download the leaflet "Information
for Utility Model Applicants".
Informations on Inpadoc legal status codes can be found on the download area of
the European Patent Office:

Subject: Inpadoc Reference
Could anybody please explain to me what DE 8642/REG stands for in Inpadoc ?
I have seen this followed by Impact abolished for DE or by withdrawal.
Could somebody also explain the difference between a Gebrauchsmuster and a
Patentschrift, or lead me to some site/publication that could help me?
Thank you,
Gloria
