No, there is no example at this time.  What were you planning to use 
this API for?
AtkDocument is intended primarily for  XML-DOM-like interfaces, but has 
not been
implemented for a number of technical reasons including the absence of good
normative C bindings for XML DOM which are usable out-of-process.

If you are interested in 'text documents' then there are conventions for 
use of
AtkText, i.e.

* each paragraph is a separate AtkObject implementing AtkText;
* AtkRelations FLOWS_FROM and FLOWS_TO are used to establish
  text flow;
* text attributes are returned by atk_text API in two ways: standard 
'get_attributes'
 API returns the explicitly-applied attributes (e.g. attributes that 
differ from 'Default')
 and the get_default_attributes API can be used to get the default 
attributes over
 a range.  The get_default_attributes API should return things like 
font size, colors,
 styles, etc. whereas the get_attributes API should only return those 
attributes if they have
 been explicitly set to differ from the default values.
