The documents in paper form ( 28 ) are scanned in within the scope of a batch processing operation in order to generate signature files that contain the personal signatures ( 34 ) in an electronically processable form and also representations of the respectively assigned control information items ( 30 ). The control information items ( 30 ) contained in a signature file are identified and interpreted document-wise.
