7.2.3. RTF format
RTF (Rich Text Format) allows you to download Notices yet preserve their presentation (formatting). The
resultant file can then be directly opened in a word processor such as Microsoft Word and the notice will be laid out
exactly as displayed in the MIMOSA Notice view :
( PN ) Publication number :
EP 0812662 A1 19971217
( ET ) English Title (EP and WO) :
COMPOSITE SENSOR ROBOT SYSTEM
( PA ) Applicant :
FANUC LTD
Please note that when using the RTF option, each notice is downloaded as a separate file. These files are then
arranged in a sub-directory architecture (tree structure) identical to that used for downloading documents.
7.3. Download documents
MIMOSA downloads documents to a sub-directory architecture (tree structure). The root for this architecture is
the folder you selected (1) in the edit zone. Within this folder, MIMOSA creates a next level folder corresponding to
the name of the database (2) and a then a lower level folder corresponding to the publication number of the
document (3). MIMOSA then downloads all the image files and the SGML file corresponding to the appropriate
document into this folder.

7.3.1. RTF download
RTF (Rich Text Format) allows you to download full documents yet preserve their presentation (formatting).
The resultant file can then be directly opened in a word processor such as Microsoft Word and the document will be
laid out as displayed in the MIMOSA Document view. Each document is downloaded in a single RTF format file with
any corresponding images also included. Please note that certain layout features are not supported in an RTF file.
For example, the document layout across a number of columns is lost during the export to file process.
7.3.2. PDF Export
On the ESPACE EPA and ESPACE EPB CD-ROM, in addition to the SGML format, the documents are also
available in PDF format. The SGML format is used by MIMOSA for the display. Otherwise for exporting and printing,
you can use the PDF format which corresponds to the original paper document. Note : if you want to export subdocuments, you must have the full Acrobat software installed.
