GL A II 4.1.1 Indication that a European patent is sought

Error message

Deprecated function: Using ${var} in strings is deprecated, use {$var} instead in include_once() (line 1445 of /home/patently/domains/xepc.eu/public_html/includes/bootstrap.inc).

Deprecated function: Optional parameter $type declared before required parameter $nid is implicitly treated as a required parameter in include_once() (line 1445 of /home/patently/domains/xepc.eu/public_html/includes/bootstrap.inc).

Use of the prescribed request for grant form or the software provided by the EPO for electronic filing (see A‑II, 1.2.2) best provides "the indication that a patent is sought" as referred to in A‑II, 4.1(i) (see also A‑III, 4).
