figure-description

To generate patent figure descriptions with consistent reference numerals, the skill processes technical diagrams and flowcharts from your project directory, automatically assigning per-figure 100-series numerals and cross-referencing components to claim elements. This ensures compliant formal drawing descriptions for multi-figure applications.

Yes, you can use automated figure drafting for both Chinese and US patent applications. The skill is jurisdiction-aware, generating compliant formal drawing descriptions tailored for Chinese (附图说明) and US/EP (FIG. descriptions) patent filings from your provided technical figures.

Cross-referencing figure components to claim elements works by scanning your patent claims and mapping the identified components in system architecture diagrams or flowcharts to corresponding claim language. This maintains numeral consistency across all figures and flags any missing figures required by the claims.

Supported file formats for scanning technical diagrams in patent drafting include PNG, JPG, SVG, and PDF. The skill scans your project directories for these figure formats to identify components, assign reference numerals, and detect missing figures required by your patent claims.

Yes, automated patent drawing description flags missing figures required by claims. During the directory scanning process, the skill analyzes your patent claims and identifies any referenced figures that are absent from your project files, ensuring complete drawing compliance before submission.

The best way to maintain reference numeral consistency across multiple patent figures is to automate the assignment using a jurisdiction-aware tool that applies per-figure 100-series numerals. This ensures components are consistently numbered and cross-referenced to claim elements without manual errors.
