I wanted to download a patent ... unfortuantely the USPTO uses an obscure TIFF format for its image files and I had some difficulty finding and installing the right pplugin for Firefox. Then I discovered http://www.pat2pdf.org/ You simply fill out a form with your patent search info, in this case I had a patent number already, then the service fetchs the patent, converts it to pdf and you can then download it. Works great and saves me the hassle of sorting out the plugin. I want a Web 2.0 full of stuff like this. BobLQ -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
Thanks for pointing this out. It's nice that there is an easy solution to this problem. I'd rather that the problem didn't exist in the first place, though. Cameron -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
