Section 3 of the Indian Evidence Act defines 'document' very broadly — it includes anything expressed or described on any substance by means of letters, figures, or marks intended to be used for recording that matter. Maps, caricatures, photographs all qualify. The question tests which item does NOT meet this definition.
