documental structure

The essential layout and other visual elements of a particular type of
document. (Think, for a second, of the hundreds of documental
structures that can inform the printer’s fist of a visual poem: doodles,
telegrams, emails, maps, architectural drawings, tickets, banners,
memoranda, postage stamps, schematic drawings, rebuses, crossword
puzzles, knitting patterns, advertisements, newspapers, word squares,
scrolls, pennants, T-shirts, petroglyphs, tattoos, rubber stamps, illuminated
manuscripts, indentures, broadsides, magazines, religious tracts, faxes,
logos, train schedules, diaries.)
