Therefore, if a document contains many possibilities (e.g. grayscale and color), it would be sufficient to indicate 'color' as attribute value. Similarly, if a document contains both images in grayscale and black and white, we would recommend using 'grayscale' as attribute value.

Migration to the new Route for current 'Route A' Offices

The migration effort for current Route A Offices would be the following:

 (1)     As OFF, the same add-entry operation is to be used for registrating documents in DAS (see further details).

  1. It would be required to use the new version of the library-transaction-v2-0.dtd.
  2. Priority filing date should be provided in the add-entry operation. When there is a change of the priority date, Offices would need to update the change in DAS by using the add-entry operation again for the same priority application, including sending a new copy of the document.
  3. If access code is not provided, WIPO-DAS would generate the access code as it works now. For your information, there will be a change in the access code format.

(2)     As OSF, a change in the national filing procedure would be required to allow the applicant to furnish the access code (e.g. additional field to capture the access code of a given priority application number).

(3)     As OSF, the same get-document operation is to be used for retrieving documents from DAS (see further details).

  1. It would be required to use the new version of the library-transaction-v2-0.dtd.
  2. Access code must be provided in this operation
  3. It is strongly recommended to provide also the prioity filing date so that a cross check of the date may be performed by WIPO DAS.
  4. It may be useful to detect the color indication if the Office accepts only black and white images.
