I've written up an invention disclosure. It involves what can be represented
with a complex stack of CSG primitives.   The patent lawyer who's writing up the
docket didn't understand my written description and barely did after I made a
(sloppy) vector drawing. When he saw a first draft of a raytraced representation
of the structure, he said the image *is* going into the docket as it really
explains the structure.

Anyone ever been published in this way?   Do patents these days publish bitmaps
in the final publication?
