→APS Rosetta Stone
The Advanced Patent System (APS) is a fixed-width text format used to store historical patent grant data. The documentation for this sucks; there are pages missing at random. Luckily, we only care about the content contained here: [[File:PatentFullTextAPSDoc_GreenBook_pgs13-22.pdf]].
It's worth mentioning that the APS contains an advanced text markup system for chemical formulae, basic text markup, tables , etc. that can lead so to seemingly useless garbled textthat is perfectly well-formed.
