Viewing Individual Records
Surf IP does not have an image viewer for viewing records. Clicking on the record of interest opens up a new window. From there, the user views the record as it is displayed on its country of origin’s website. For example, US documents are viewed using the USPTO Patent Full-text and Image Database viewer while Japanese documents are viewed using Japanese Patent and Utility Model Gazette Database viewer, and so forth.
Viewing full-text of a patent through the USPTO viewer.
Viewing a patent abstract of Japan through the Japan Patent Office website viewer.
