| Standard Document Format |
1. Forrests internal document format (defined by an XML-grammar). This format ist the common denominator
for all things going into or coming out of Forrest's core processing. All input-plugins will translate their supported documents into this
format, all output-plugins will create the output by transforming this format into something else. Currently Forrest uses document-v13-dtd as its internal format.
