Abstract
The paper discuses some problems of presentation and proc- essing of linguistic knowledge, needed for the development of real-size Bulgarian linguistic resource to be used in a multilingual text generation system, covering software manuals sublanguage. The sublanguage vol- ume is specified by corpus analysis. The text generation is based on the Systemic Functional Linguistics theory. A method for developing lexico-grammar resources by re-using an existing resource for another language is described and illustrated with three examples.
