发行量 (fā) — volume of circulation, circulation numbers (of a publication)
Definition
发行量 specifically refers to the number of copies of a publication (newspaper, magazine, book) actually distributed — the 'circulation figures', not just how many were printed. Pairs with 出版 (publish) and follows a publication, not an author or topic.
