Art. 383 Number of editions
1 Where no clause was agreed that stipulates the number of editions, the publisher is entitled to produce only one.
2 Where nothing was agreed, the publisher determines the size of the edition but at the originator’s request must print at least enough to generate reasonable sales, and once the first print run is completed, he must not print any further copies.
3 Where the publishing contract confers publishing rights for several or all editions of a work and the publisher fails to produce a new edition after the previous edition is exhausted, the originator may have the court set a time limit for the publication of a new edition, failing which the publisher forfeits such rights.
