Receive an Office action from the European Patent Office against your filed patent application.
Build a response package using the Office action file(s) and your most recently submitted claims.
Save your work in progress as an .rpr file.
Note that we maintain a temporary recovery copy in the background in case your computer or Rowan Patents crashes, but we do not autosave your work, and changes to your file will be lost if you close your file and decline to save changes.
Export a .zip file package, including a .docx response shell file, for further drafting work outside of Rowan Patents
OR
Use Rowan Patent's Response Writer to draft amendments and response remarks, then export a Word (.docx) response file.
Note that supporting data to assist your drafting is provided in the Package, Summary, and Rejection Navigator tabs.
