Organizations tend to have style sheets for their terminological publications, and specialized tools generally need to be developed to produce documents that respect the guidelines.

PUBLICIEL© is a DOS application developed by the Translation Bureau in 1990 to produce its electronic glossaries and vocabularies. The application includes a database and output programs that format the stored information according to the guidelines laid out in the Bureau’s Guide des publications.

Some terminologists have a copy of the application on their workstation, and can import sets of terminological data taken from TERMIUM Plus® or LATTER©. PUBLICIEL© then performs the desired page layout in the form of a file that can be retrieved in Corel WordPerfect or Microsoft Word. The resulting manuscript can then be saved in PDF or HTML format and distributed on the Internet using a File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
