During the last 10 years, there have been many efforts in some areas of Natural Language Processing to encode the normal text or documents into machine readable form. If we encode written data using a canonical form which can be recognized by a computer, we can extract needed information and process and utilize it for another purposes. From this point of view, we present an account of the encoding of a printed dictionary. The construction of a lexicon is very time-consuming and expensive work and the application of the lexicon is restricted. In this paper, we describe a logical structure for Korean printed dictionaries as a general lexical representation based on SDML, which can be transformed into another representation for different application requirements.
