<div>Subject: Re: [Patentpractice] Suggestions for Large Exhibit
(dimensions, not pages) Submission in Response to Office Action
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All,<br>
<br>
I have a dilemma.<br>
<br>
In response to an Office Action, I want to submit a data
visualization image as an exhibit that shows the vast number of
individual steps involved in a particular calculation (that is
only part of a claim) and that the examiner says can be "done
with pen and paper" or in the human mind which, within the
express context of the claim involves a time period of less than
a second. Even an infinite number of people could not do that,
given the extent of the calculations and the fact that it must
be done multiple times within that time window. Unfortunately,
that visualization is so large and complex that, when printed as
a PDF on a single sheet, it s merely a blur. If I can submit as
a .jpg, the Examiner can zoom in to see the details, but it
appears that the Patent side does not accept .jpg files. I have
also created a large "tiled" PDF that spans 32 pages and will
have to be split into two PDFs to meet PTO size limits. It
enables a detailed viewing of the individual steps, but, as
tiles, it is difficult to see the overall picture. My current
thought is to submit both with an explanation and hope for the
best. Does anyone have any other suggestions or has anyone been
able to submit a .jpg as an exhibit/attachment to an Office
Action response?
<br>
<br>
My other thought is to submit both per the above, request an
interview, and e-mail the .jpg to the Examiner in advance of the
interview. If I would go that route, does anyone know if the
PTO e-mail system will block such an e-mail or strip the .jpg
attachment?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for your input and enjoy the long weekend!<br>
