The assigned examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application and determined the following.
The applicant’s preliminary amendment has been received and entered into the record. The clarification of the entity is acceptable.
The examining attorney has searched the Office records and has found no similar registered or pending mark which would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. §1052(d). TMEP §704.02.
The applicant must respond to the following informality.
Drawing
The applicant must submit a new drawing showing the mark clearly and conforming to 37 C.F.R. Section 2.52. TMEP section 807.05. The drawing is not acceptable because it contains pixelation which will result in a poor quality reproduction. The drawing appears fuzzy and is not sharp and clear.
The requirements for a special-form drawing are as follows:
· The drawing must appear in black and white if color is not claimed as a feature of the mark, or in color if color is claimed as a feature of the mark.
· Drawings must be typed or made with a pen or by a process that will provide high definition when copied. A photolithographic, printer’s proof copy, or other high quality reproduction of the mark may be used. All lines must be clean, sharp and solid, and must not be fine or crowded.
· The image must be no larger than 3.15 inches (8 cm) high by 3.15 inches (8cm) wide.
· If reduction of the mark to the required size renders any details illegible, then applicant may insert a statement in the application to describe the mark and these details.
37 C.F.R. §§2.52(b); See TMEP §§807.01(b) and 807.07(a).
If submitted on paper, the Office prefers that the drawing be depicted on a separate sheet of non-shiny, white paper that is 8 to 8.5 inches wide and 11 to 11.69 inches long (20.3 to 21.6 cm. wide and 27.9 to 29.7 cm. long). One of the shorter sides of the sheet should be regarded as its top edge. In addition, the drawing should include the caption “DRAWING PAGE” at the top of the drawing beginning one-inch (2.5 cm) from the top edge. 37 C.F.R. §2.54.
The Office strictly enforces these drawing requirements.
To submit a special form drawing electronically, applicant must attach a digitized image of the mark to the submission. The Office will only accept an image in .jpg format. The image must be formatted at no less than 300 dots per inch and no more than 350 dots per inch; and with a length and width of no less than 250 pixels and no more than 944 pixels. All lines in the image must be clean, sharp and solid, and not fine or crowded, and produce a high quality image when copied. 37 C.F.R. §2.53.
If the applicant has any questions or needs assistance in responding to this Office action, please telephone the assigned examining attorney.
