    The content generator is the third stage content processor. This part is responsible to process the generated display model and to prepare it for rendering it to the output medium.

    In the simplest case, the content generator will be able to pass the display model without any changes. In the more complicated cases, the display model needs to be flattened (as text processors cannot contain paragraphs inside other paragraphs, for instance) before it can be rendered.
