Send a document for signature (PaperOffice Sign)

What it is and what it is for

PaperOffice Sign collects signatures for a document in your workspace. It is a simple electronic signature under eIDAS. Every recipient confirms with an SMS code before signing. The final PDF includes a certificate.

How to do it

  1. Open Documents and select exactly one document.
  2. Choose Actions → Signature → Send for signature.
  3. In the Recipients tab, enter name, email and mobile number for each person.
  4. Pick the delivery: email, SMS or link. Decide whether people sign in parallel or one after another.
  5. Set automatic reminders if you want them.
  6. Click Send signature request.

To follow progress, use Actions → Signature → View status. There you can send a reminder or cancel the request.

Good to know

  • Signing in person: choose Sign on smartphone. The person gets a link by SMS and signs without an app.
  • Each request covers exactly one document.
  • SMS delivery is paid. Link delivery has no automatic reminders.
  • The free “Sign PDF” tool on paperoffice.ai only places an image of your signature. It does not check identity and creates no certificate.
