cédula
Spanish to English
Law/Patents
This is a deed of sale drawn up on "papel para cédulas y copias simples"
I had thought of certificate, but if "copia simple" is a "non-certified copy" (according to the glossary), I don't get it.

certificate paper; bond paper
'Cédula' is precisely the type of paper on which a deed (in this case, of sale) is drawn up. Your first guess is correct, that is, certificate paper. Papel para cédulas is a sort of parchment or scroll where the deeds were written originally. You may also use 'bond paper'. Sizes vary. 'Copias simples' gives you the clue: is the type of paper used for non-certified documents.

Comment: "Well, what I was translating was a copia simple, which I eventually decided to translate as uncertified copy (i.e. no stamps, no signatures), so it was most definitely paper for uncertified copies (my phrase was written on the left-hand side of every sheet). And I went for certificate for cédula.
Thanks all for the help."

identification card
cédula is normally used as an abbreviation of cédula de identidad.
Of course, cédula can also be an order, a certificate, or a legal document, but in this context I would say identification card.

deed paper, along with simple copies
cédulas are certificates or deeds. It's papel para cédulas + simple copies, not papel para cédulas y para copias....

summons to a meeting, notice
Habría que ver el resto pero creo que te referís a las cédulas judiciales, son citaciones. En inglés: citation, notice issued by a judicial official.
Notice of meeting, summons to a meeting.
Muchas veces las notificaciones llegan a los destinatarios mediante cédulas.
Saludos, Auror
