30 * Interface DocAttribute is a tagging interface which a printing attribute
31 * class implements to indicate the attribute denotes a setting for a doc.
32 * ("Doc" is a short, easy-to-pronounce term that means "a piece of print
33 * data.") The client may include a DocAttribute in a <code>Doc</code>'s
34 * attribute set to specify a characteristic of
35 * that doc. If an attribute implements {@link PrintRequestAttribute
36 * PrintRequestAttribute} as well as DocAttribute, the client may include the
37 * attribute in a attribute set which specifies a print job
38 * to specify a characteristic for all the docs in that job.
