Arbortext Publishing Engine is also distributed with an Arbortext PE アプリケーション written in Java that provides publishing services to Arbortext Editor clients. Unlike the conversion application, the publishing client must be Arbortext Editor. Arbortext Editor users can specify an Arbortext PE サーバー, then select publishing, import, and export operations using the Arbortext Editor program. Publishing requests are fulfilled on the Arbortext PE サーバー.

As part of its publishing service, Arbortext Publishing Engine is distributed with a Cache Manager, an Initializer, and a Java Arbortext PE アプリケーション that gathers information about the publishing configuration of the Arbortext PE サーバー (such as installed document types, stylesheets, and so on) and reports that information to Arbortext Editor clients or Arbortext Publishing Engine administrators.
