(See: http://ebd2.epoline.org/jsp/index.jsp for notification of change, test data etc.) - This DTD will be maintained and updated by the EPO; DTD updates and further documentation will be posted on the epoline.org site. - It will be sent to WIPO for posting on their site. *** Note to EBD users. The EBD files on the epoline website are contained in two zip files and when extracted contained in one big file (one for A documents and one for B documents). This DTD is intended to validate only ONE instance within those files; one file may contain 1000+ instances. So, from these files extract each instance beginning and ending: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE ep-bulletin PUBLIC "-//EPO//EP BULLETIN 1.0//EN" <ep-bulletin ..> ... </ep-bulletin>. With a minor modification to this DTD it would be possible to validate the one file with many instances BUT many id attributes would not be unique.*** *** IMPORTANT: Note to EPO editors: do not modify using Near & Far; use a text editor to preserve elements in the order of this DTD.

DE, ES, FR, US, WO - doc-number - the publication number - the kind attribute value must be in upper case, eg. A1, B1 - correction-code (e.g. W1) must ONLY be populated in the case of a correction, in upper case - date-publ - the publication date, e.g. date-publ="20050105" - status - for the EPO this will be either n (new), c (corrected), r (replacement) - sequence - only used (SO FAR) for B3 (EPC2000) - dtd-version, e.g. dtd-version="ep-bulletin-v1-3" ATTRIBUTES NOT USED: - date-produced - file-reference-id (may be in PatXML files) Having all these attributes at this level helps processing, stylesheet set up, etc. Example: for EBD data: <ep-bulletin id="EP04102952A1" file="04102952.1" lang="de" country="EP" doc-number="1493319" kind="A1" date-publ="20050105" status="n" dtd-version="ep-bulletin-v1-3"> NOTES: - we do NOT use the <bibliographic-data> element and elements; we use <SDOBI> - SDOBI (created by the EPO, must not be changed) --> <!ELEMENT ep-bulletin (SDOBI) > <!ATTLIST ep-bulletin id ID #IMPLIED file CDATA #REQUIRED lang CDATA #IMPLIED country CDATA #REQUIRED doc-number CDATA #REQUIRED kind CDATA #REQUIRED correction-code CDATA #IMPLIED date-publ CDATA #REQUIRED status CDATA #REQUIRED sequence CDATA #IMPLIED dtd-version CDATA #REQUIRED date-produced CDATA #IMPLIED file-reference-id CDATA #IMPLIED > <!--* EBD SDOBI - COPIED FROM LINE BELOW INTO/FROM ep-patent-document.dtd ********************************* SDOBI - BIBLIOGRAPHY SUB-DOCUMENT ********************************* The elements under <SDOBI> are for use mainly by the EPO and for backward compatibility.
