I suggest the following editing. Replace:
"The 'image'  element indicates that the contents of a complete document are to be rendered into a given rectangle within the current user coordinate system."
with
"The 'image'  element indicates that the contents of an image are to be rendered into a given rectangle within the current user coordinate system."

For x, y, width and height, replace:
"If the attribute is not specified, the effect is as if a value of "0" were specified."
with
"The lacuna value is '0'."

> Could you rephrase the following sentence? It does not look like a correct sentence:

In image, audio, video, replace:
"For optimizing download time by requiring a particular content format authors are encouraged to use 'requiredFormats', instead of 'type'."
with
"To indicate the media formats and avoid that a User Agent downloads media in formats that it does not support, authors are encouraged to use 'requiredFormats' instead of 'type'."
