A document can be in electronic form or in any other form, and it includes a map, plan, drawing, photograph, or any other image.
A document can be created on any substance, such as paper, parchment, cloth, metal, stone, or any other material. A document can contain any combination of symbols, such as alphabets, numerals, signs, or even a signature, and it is the context in which they are used that determines their meaning.
A document can be of public or private nature, depending on whether it is made by or under the authority of a public officer or a private person.
