RE: [Piug-Discussion-List] Instant PDFs for late 1980s NZ applications and AU B patents?

Hi John

Re the AU patents - short answer: no instant download source for older
AU patents, I'm afraid.

Long answer:
Anything published from Dec 1998 and later should be available from this
site: http://pericles.ipaustralia.gov.au/aub/aub_pages_1.intro (though
I'm assuming you already know about that). However it also includes
earlier AU patents that have an AU priority (i.e. non-convention,
non-PCT).

Anything that falls outside of this range, you can order from IP
Australia's publication sales department, at
salesteam_at_ipaustralia.gov.au, for AUD25.00 each. They are usually pretty
good re turnaround time, especially if you make the request urgent. If
you don't have an account with them (which I presume you don't), I think
you can pay by credit card by filling out this form:
http://www.ipaustralia.gov.au/pdfs/finance/g01068.pdf, and faxing it to
them before/after sending the email request. You probably won't won't
get it "today" (US time) though, given the time difference between AU
and US, :-(

Alternatively you can order it online from the firm IP Organisers
(http://www.iporganisers.com/), though I suspect they would need to go
through the above ordering process as well, unless they have a copy of
the patent already in their collection (Rodney, please correct me if I'm
wrong!)

Good luck,

Hello PIUGers,

Does anyone know of an instant PDF patent source for late 1980s AU type
B patents or NZ applications, such that I could receive the PDF today?!
I have checked Delphion, CAS, Minesoft, and QPAT. Inpadoc is the only
one so far with the NZ records. Thanks!

Regards,

John
