Printing Drawings in Gazette.

IN advertising the acceptance of complete specifications in the Gazette it is intended to reproduce a portion of the drawings. For this purpose it is desirable that as much of the invention as possible be shown in one or two views. These views, which will also serve as the drawings or part of the drawings referred to in the specification, should be within a space of 6 in. by 8 in. In printing they will be reduced to about one-sixth of their original size, and the number of figures shown within the space mentioned should be regulated accordingly, as one figure of a fair size will in many cases convey a better idea of an invention than two or more figures reduced to the point of indistinctness.

Where it is found necessary to exceed the space mentioned, it is desired that the drawings will, if possible, be within a space of 14 in. by 6 in., or a space conforming to those dimensions as closely as possible.

In cases where drawings are produced by lithography or other process, three copies (one on tracing cloth) might be furnished to this office in place of two.

No change will be made in the following regulations already in force, but strict compliance with them will be necessary.

One copy of the drawings must be on blue transparent linen or tracing-cloth, and the other copy either on that material or on drawing-paper or linaura fabric. The sheets on which the drawings are made to be either 13 in. by 8 in. or 13 in. by 16 in., with a margin of at least 1 in. All the lines must be absolutely black, Indian ink of the best quality being used, and the same strength of colour of the ink maintained throughout the drawing. Any shading must be in lines clearly and distinctly drawn, and as open as is consistent with the required effect. Section-lines should not be too closely drawn. No colour must be used for any purpose upon the drawing, and all letters and figures of reference must be bold and distinct. The drawings must not be folded, but be delivered at the Patent Office either in a perfectly flat state, or rolled upon a roller or in a stiff case, so as to be free from creases or breaks.

The signature must be in perfectly black ink, and no other writing, impressions of stamps, or the like ought to appear on any part of the sheet.

Registrar.
