Supported paper types

Depending on the recipient country of a letter, Pingen supports printing payment slips directly on official forms. Pingen automatically detects pages with payment slips and checks, if the required form respectively paper type for these slips is available for the specified recipient country.

If the detected paper type is not available for the destination country, then the page containing the payment slips must be changed to regular paper in the Pingen App. More information in the article "Invalid paper type"

Important notes when using payment slips

Payment slips must be transferred to Pingen without the coloured background, since printing is done directly on the official pre-printed and pre-perforated forms.

Payment slips do not necessarily have to be placed on the last page of the document. They can be on any page.

If the document is printed duplex (double-sided), make sure that any payment slips are on odd-numbered pages. Otherwise, a document cannot be printed duplex for printing reasons.

Paper types for the same recipient country can also be mixed in one document. For example, a document for Switzerland can contain both a payment slip and a QR invoice.
