>   <string>xml</string>
>   <integer>123</integer>
>  </doc>
> 
> In the xml-schema file for this instance document i

> reach in this way:
>  - if the element is a string or derived from it i
> fill it with space to reach the maximum length(after
> it) 
>  - if it is an integer i write "0" prior to it.
> For the example document beyond the result should be
