Vienna Codes For Image Search
Of the very intimidating process of registering one's
trademark, the first step is to have done a thorough and complete
trademark search before registering. Searches must be done to
ensure that there are no similar marks in the same class as the
proposed mark with the similar goods description.
Trademarks can broadly be of two types – containing a
device or containing a word-mark (single or multiple words) and
then – those containing a device.
But the main problem arises when there is the question of a
DEVICE which maybe an image, graphic label, pictorial element, or
combination of the above; its contents and elements used for
illustrations may be of many types. A device may have only
characters (can be seen in IBM or McDonalds), it may have
representation of simple shapes, colours, objects, animals, people,
planets, or any other form of life, and may even extend to
imaginary characters – or any such combinations.
