When your orders are complete, QPP can quickly and securely transmit the drawings to an e-mail address anywhere in the world using PDF format (PDF files work on both PC & Mac). This service enables you to print formal drawings within minutes of their completion. We can also use password protected encryption to insure complete confidentiality. No more worrying about last minute drawing revisions or changes when deadlines are near. We recommend a 600 dpi or higher laser printer, Adobe Acrobat Reader and a supply of the correct size paper. If you don’t already use Adobe Acrobat Reader click on the icon below to download it for free.
* Secure Download Area – At your request, we can set up a password-protected folder on our FTP site where you and your colleagues can download your completed jobs if they are too large to email.
Some advantages of using high speed electronic file transfer:
- Completed drawings can be quickly sent as e-mail attachments for review.
- Because the detail is higher the review process is faster and more accurate with PDF files.
- Photographic drawings in PDF format for review show more detail than fax or paper copies.
- By using PDF files, you can send a high-quality copy to your client for final approval.
- Bypasses the busy phone lines, paper jams and other fax problems.
- PDF attachments sent quickly by email can be filed electronically at the USPTO
- No shipping/handling charges
- Faster than same-day shipping
Having the option of electronic file transfer for drawing delivery has become an invaluable asset. You will no longer have to wait for overnight delivery or high shipping costs to meet that tight deadline.
Once the drawings are approved, we will send them to you in any format you require such as .tiff or .pdf.
And, using the Internet, you can instantly send us copies of your specifications, better copies of the drawings, original photographs and any other material to aid in the completion of your drawings.
Upload Files
Size restrictions from our email service provider do not allow files larger than 14 megabytes to be sent to our email address. However, we have an upload area at our website that will accommodate files up to 200 megabytes. Click on the “upload” button at the bottom of the page to upload your files. After you have successfully transferred your files, email us with the case information and let us know you uploaded new material. There is no limit to the amount of files that you upload, but you can only send one file at a time. For multiple files, we recommend that you use WinZip or WinRar to zip the files together. This will also make the file transfer process faster.
