SCHEMA for a set of pages whose component variants are to be
published in various places. In each published instance, it is
set in its final form (so it defines itself) be the editor of
the particular publication where it is to appear, the exact data
used to correspond in each specific instance to the specific
fact(s) of the final published appearance. The work defines its-
elf in place only as information with simply the external support
of the facts of its external appearance or presence in print in
place of the object.
