In Italian it's translated as "Schema documento", and in my opinion it's a good label for this tool, because it is not just a list of the objects included in the document, but shows its structure too. So maybe it could be called "Document structure" or something similar. > You can leave that out, and then start immediately to describe the > different kinds of 'objects' that can occur in a document. I think that's a good idea for improving the article. Regards, Alessandro
