  The Foreword provides background on the standards process for VRML. The Introduction describes the purpose, design criteria, and characteristics of VRML. The following clauses define part 2 of ISO/IEC 14772:

1. Scope defines the problem area that the VRML authoring interface addresses.
2. Normative references lists the normative standards referenced in this part of ISO/IEC 14772.
3. Definitions contains the glossary of terminology used in this part of ISO/IEC 14772.
4. Concepts describes various fundamentals of the VRML authoring interface.
5. Data types specifies the datatypes used by the VRML authoring interface services.
6. Services reference defines the syntax and semantics of VRML authoring interface services.
7. Conformance and minimum support requirements describes the conformance requirements for VRML authoring interface implementations.

There are several annexes included in the specification:

1. IDL binding reference specifies the binding of the VRML authoring interface functions to the Interface Definition Language (IDL).
2. Java binding reference specifies the binding of the VRML auhtoring interface functions to Java.
