ABSTRACT:
A description of document elements to be laid out on a page, include two or more hierarchical levels. Each document element is placed at one of the hierarchical levels. Elements at a lower hierarchical level are associated with a document element at a next higher hierarchical level. Page layout according to such a document description may be optimised discretely at different hierarchical levels without affecting constraints.
