JAPIO (JApan Patent Information Organization database) is a patent database providing the most comprehensive English-language access to Japanese unexamined patent applications (Kokai Tokkyo Koho) in all technologies, which are provided on PAJ (Patent Abstracts of Japan) CD-ROMS.
The PAJ records contain assignee data, publication information, International Patent Classification codes, as well as title and abstract in English. Abstracts are available for all applications originating in Japan and for many foreign applications. Images of front page drawings, when available for a given patent, are included. Any program that handles TIFF and JPEG images compressed in Group 4 fax format, e.g., STN Express, may be used to capture graphic images from DISPLAY or they may be viewed directly on the screen during an STN on the Web session.
The file is enhanced with bibliographic data from INPADOC records from April 1973 to end of 1997.
