Lexicographer is an authoring system for creating multimedia references. Lexicographer provides corporations, with industry jargon needs, with a way to create dictionaries for themselves, and for potential sale to others in the same industry. Simple, low-cost license arrangement. The publishing industry is familiar with royalty arrangements, but we still kept it as simple as possible. We wanted individuals, authors and small companies to be able to create dictionary modules, with minimal startup costs.
Lexicographer is flexible.
Lexicographer works well for both scholarly references and consumer dictionaries. We're encouraging developers to create general English language modules, word origins, unusual words, colloquial terms, difficult words, etc. We also want to encourage and support the development of medical, scientific and law dictionaries. Finally, we hope to see lots of consumer special interest dictionaries, such as dictionaries of plant names, flowers, dinosaurs, and more. Lexicographer supports pictures and sounds, and comes complete with a full-featured phonetic font for special purpose pronunciation needs.
