The translation was mine, not from a book. I was guessing at 公示。Standard would be 标准 I think， there is no 公式  in my text. This 版权费 is required by a 政府机关或团体, left to their own devices, no one would pay! If it is a noun, it could be 'announcement', but that does not fit well, then rather 'announced' or 'notified the public'.

Once the PSA for Karaoke royalties standards was published, owners and patrons all had different reactions.

<p>Maybe you know 告示. I think 公示 is the official version of 告示. So I think 公示 = official bulletin (or something similar).</p>

<p>So the whole sentence should be:

公：public；示：notify
so, put these characters together, 公示means “to notify the public about some events or public decision” or "something that publicly notifies the population about some events" .

Thus, to your question, 公示 is a noun, "一出"is a verb means "release". And in your case, 公式was translated as "standard" which makes sense, because industry standard made by some public organization can be seen as "something that notify the public about some public decision".
