[su.computers] Format for sending patents to EC patent office

jbn@glacier.STANFORD.EDU (John B. Nagle) (12/18/88)

      I just read in New Scientist that the Patent Office of the European
Economic Community is now accepting patents in machine-readable form.
Does anyone know what the appropriate format is?  For that matter, does
the EC maintain a business office or "embassy" in the US?
