Answer
If your husband signed a document stating that he divorces you, then the ruling is that if he did it when you were not present, then the divorce is counted. Thus if he issued three divorces, then it will not be permissible for you to remarry him, except in the case where you in the interim get married to another spouse who consummates the marriage.
If your husband issued one or two divorces, then it would be permissible to remarry. If the paper was signed in your presence and he did not utter the Talaaq verbally, then the talaaq would not have taken place.
