OHIM e-filing update

We covered the improved RCD online filing system earlier this year. Since then, we learned at the last e-Business User Group meeting, OHIM have made some improvements, and more are on the way. Improvements which are already with us are:

• Removal of the maximum number of designs in an e-filed multiple application;
• Multiple image file upload - you can upload all the image files for one design in one hit now, rather than having to do so one at a time;
• "Image editing" - I don't know what this covers, can anyone enlighten us?

On the way is a "save draft" option, allowing you to save a design for a few days (at present you only have a couple of hours). That will allow approval by supervising attorneys or clients - very welcome.
