a) I give the book to the woman. and not I give to the woman the book.   b) I give it to the woman and not I give to the woman it.   c) I give her the book. or I give the book to her.   d) I give it to her. and not I give her it.

In a) there is no substitution: the direct object is before the indirect object
in b) there is only the direct object substituted: the direct object is before the indirect object
in c) there is only the indirect object substituted: the direct object is before the indirect object with a         preposition; the indirect object can be - without a preposition - before the direct object
in d) both objects are substitute: the direct object is before the indirect object (used with a preposition)

In German the rule is: the indirect object is before the direct object.
