Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Publisher"

A: "chomping at the bit" means they are really impatient, like a racehorse that is being made to wait but cannot stand still. They want to jump into action as soon as possible. They are really impatient about getting started.

A: This means that the publisher also published the author’s other two books.

A: İt means to try to please someone because you want them to join you.

Adams is being courted by a number of football clubs.

A: If someone resigns from a job, for example a publisher like mentioned, then that means they quit that job or task they were doing. It’s a nice and polite way of saying they quit since the word quit has a negative connotation to it (connotation is the feeling behind a word, and quit would be negative)

A: "He took the publisher to court for the article." "For" is similar to "because", so because of the article, he took the publisher to court. It sounds more natural.

"He took the publisher to court about the article" does not make much sense and sounds less natural.

A: No difference

A: × Some publisher even partnered with Disney Co. to have Mickey, Minnie and other Disney characters appear in their own publications, costarring their own popular comic strip characters.
✓ Some publishers even partnered with the Walt Disney Company to have Mickey, Minnie, and other Disney characters appear in their own publications, co-starring along with their own popular comic strip characters.

× Perhaps because of the partnership, they had the opportunity to see these pictures of Uncle Walt and the idea was born to publicize the Japanese creator of the comic strip series as another Walt Disney.
✓ Perhaps because of their partnership with Disney, they* had the opportunity to see these pictures of Uncle Walt, and the idea was born to publicize the Japanese creator of the** comic strip series as another "Walt Disney."

*Is "they" referring to a specific company you mentioned in the preceding sentences? If so, I would replace "they" with the company name.

(This assumption is also why I left the words "their partnership" and didn't change it to "these partnerships." I'm assuming this company made a partnership with Disney, however, if they didn't, write "these partnerships." instead.)

** If you are talking about a specific company, maybe write "their" instead.

Example with random company name-
Perhaps because of their partnership with Disney, Random Inc. had the opportunity to see these pictures of Uncle Walt, and the idea was born to publicize the Japanese creator of their own comic strip series as another "Walt Disney."

I hope this helps :).
