Web Document is a extended (and more informal) concept for web page, to be protocol independent and format independent. Is to be required only that web document: A PDF document requested from SFTP or SMTP protocols, for example, is a web document, but not a web page. On the other hand, all web page is also a web document.
We need the web document concept? Web page is a concept retrict to the "request on HTTP protocol and visualization on web browser". Typical web page is a HTML document, but, over HTTP, a HTML-page with a link to a non-HTML document is the typical method for accessing the non-HTML document. Is a accessed non-HTML document, like a PDF document, a web page? The e-mail protocols predates the Web protocols, but is not a subset, they constitute distinct Internet services. E-mail documents may be HTML documents, and may be viewed into a e-mail client or through a webmail (or Internet forum) as a web page. A lot of web applications deal with web page bodies and e-mail bodies indistinctly. Web applications deal with web pages, but also with many other formats and protocols.
