HOW IT WORKS
We offer free quotations. Just fax or email the informal drawings for a case and indicate the time frame in which your work needs to be completed and we will fax or email an estimate. Once your job is completed, we either fax or email you a review set of drawings in pdf format prior to final approval. We generally send fomal drawings in pdf format, unless hard copies are specified. We can send hard copies on Bristol or A4 bond for filing. You can also download your formal drawings from our secure server and print them directly to your office printer. We maintain an electronic database of all cases, which is secured and backed up on a regular basis.

PRICING GUIDE
There are many different factors to consider when pricing a page of patent drawings. We look at the source material carefully. Working from blurry source material takes more time. You can save by providing clean, good-quality sketches. Converting a 3D prototype into a two-dimensional patent drawing, working from CAD drawings, PowerPoint files, existing jpeg, tiff or bitmap images all require different procedures to create the final patent drawing. We also consider how many images are on the page. Generally, the more images you have, the more it will cost per sheet.

The good news: We are able to re-use existing images (if they are in good shape) and reduce the amount of time spent on each sheet. We will always try to save you time and money. The traditional hand-drawn patent illustration is generally the way to go, and we will work with you to get the job done right.
