Results: Results of factor analysis identified the nine factors of publishing economy, supply and presentation of publishing products, government support, adherence to copyrights, publishing audits and assessment, advertisement, branding and marketing, publishing management, publication creation, and training and improving the capabilities of publication actors as the factors affecting professional publishing. the five factors of technical elements, literary and cultural centers and circles, the creator and the audience, electronic platforms, and marketing and distribution elements were identified as the constructive dimensions of professional publishing.
