11. Copies to be made available with the search report
In the case of patent documents, a complete copy is made available.
If a document has been published in electronic form only (see Rule 68(2) and OJ EPO 2000, 367), an electronic version is made available to the applicant. If only parts of it are not available in paper form, then at least those parts will be made available as an electronic version. At any rate, the applicant must ultimately be provided with the whole document either as a combination of paper and electronic versions or in electronic form only.
