# How to Sign Several Envelopes at Once

{% hint style="info" %}
The steps below apply to all signature types except AES and QES.

If the selected key is AES or QES and the stamp is not, this flow still applies. The same applies in the opposite case.

If both the key and the stamp are AES or QES, use the flow in [**How to Sign Several Envelopes at Once Using AES or QES**](#how-to-sign-several-envelopes-at-once-using-aes-or-qes) below.
{% endhint %}
