Fully electronic filing: The Production mode is reserved for preparing and filing real PCT applications, both online and on physical media. When you start the File Manager in Demo mode, you can send test filings to the demo server of the RO/IB (and other receiving Offices, provided that the receiving Office selected has such an option available). Please see our brief Demo filing guide. PCT-EASY type of filing: Requests can be prepared in either mode but it is recommended to use the software always in the same mode, to easily access previously prepared forms and address book (data bases for the different modes are separate).
