Jordana Publishing was founded by Svetolik Paul Djordjević exclusively for the publication of his dictionaries. The name is a combination of the first names of his late parents, Jordan and Dana, to honor their memory. Mr. Djordjević explains that his company name is, "A thank you to a couple who though illiterate—he virtually, she completely—raised a family of eight, all of them decent and productive members of the human family."

    In 2012 Jordana Publishing released the 4th Edition of Djordjević's French–English Dictionary of Medicine on CD. The Serbian and Croatian–English Medical Dictionary, which contains over 52,000 terms, was published at the end of 2009. The second edition of the Serbian and Croatian–English Medical Dictionary in CD format contains over 59,500 terms and was published in 2013. The English–Serbian Medical Dictionary with over 58,000 terms was released in July, 2014.

    The last dictionary to be published is a non-medical dictionary dealing with terms used in the field of social security. It contains over 9,700 entries and was released in October, 2014.

With S. Paul Djordjević's death on December 8, 2015, Jordana Publishing was continued through 2023 under the able administration of his wife Barbarba Djordjević, who had been instrumental right along in the preparation and distribution of the publications.

    Svetolik worked as a language teacher, translator, and interpreter for over 40 years. From 1981 until his retirement in 2005, he was an in-house medical translator for Slavic languages and French for the Social Security Administration in Woodlawn, MD.
