Viewing FreePatentsOnline PDFs

FreePatentsOnline offers you patent PDFs. To view PDFs,

1. Log in to FreePatentsOnline (if you don't have an account, create one - it is free!).

2. Search for patents using any one of our search forms.

3. From the results list, select the PDF icon next to the patent of your interest. You can also view the patent PDF from the full text page, by selecting the PDF icon in the page.

If you click on a PDF link, and cannot open the document, chances are you do not have a PDF reader installed. In that case, you can download Acrobat Reader, a PDF reader from Adobe.
