Template documentation

This template has a sandbox (edit) and testcases (edit) for editors to experiment.

{{US patent}} links to the online USPTO patent application and full-text (only after 1976 patents). It also provides a PDF transcript of the images as the TIFF format cause viewing problems in many browsers.

Link title. Use | and = for | and =, respectively.
