Remarks

Use the DocumentLayout.BeginUpdateDocument - DocumentLayout.EndUpdateDocumentpair to modify the document obtained via a layout element implementing the RangedLayoutElement interface. In that case, it is very important to distinguish different parts of the document, such as header, footer and body. The BeginUpdateDocument method implements this requirement.
