The $0.10 per-page charge is based on the number of pages that result from each search and accessing each requested report or document online. NOTE: If you accrue $30 or less of charges in a quarter, fees are waived for that period. 75 percent of PACER users do not pay a fee in a given quarter. The cap does not apply to name search results, reports that are not case-specific, and transcripts of federal court proceedings. The cost to access a single document is capped at $3.00, the equivalent of 30 pages for documents and case-specific reports like docket report, creditor listing, and claims register. For PDFs, the actual number of pages is counted (1 PDF page = 1 billable page). For HTML-formatted information, a billable page is calculated using a formula based on the number of bytes extracted (4,320 bytes = 1 billable page). Access to case information costs $0.10 per page. Depending on format, billable pages are calculated in two different ways.
