Subject: Routing decision?

Hi

In paragraph 6.2 of the iptables-tutorial the following is said:
"The OUTPUT chain is used for altering locally generated packets (i.e., 
on the firewall) before they get to the routing decision.

But in paragraph 3.1, the "Traversing of tables and chains" diagram, we 
see the "Routing decision" is listed after the "Local process" and
BEFORE! the packet goes to the output chain.

So which one is right? Does the routing decision take place after or 
before the packet travels through the output chain?

Regards
