public interface DocAttribute extends Attribute
Interface `DocAttribute` is a tagging interface which a printing attribute class implements to indicate the attribute denotes a setting for a doc. ("Doc" is a short, easy-to-pronounce term that means "a piece of print data.") The client may include a `DocAttribute` in a `Doc`'s attribute set to specify a characteristic of that doc. If an attribute implements `PrintRequestAttribute` as well as `DocAttribute`, the client may include the attribute in a attribute set which specifies a print job to specify a characteristic for all the docs in that job.
