def translate(self):

Do final translation of self.document into self.output. Called from write. Override in subclasses.

Usually done with a docutils.nodes.NodeVisitor subclass, in combination with a call to docutils.nodes.Node.walk() or docutils.nodes.Node.walkabout(). The NodeVisitor subclass must support all standard elements (listed in docutils.nodes.node_class_names) and possibly non-standard elements used by the current Reader as well.
