Can they be done with documents? (5)
I believe the answer is:
deeds
'with documents?' is the definition.
'deeds' can be an answer for 'documents?' (I've seen this in another clue). I'm not certain of the 'with' bit.
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for deeds that I've seen before include "Actions" , "legal documents" , "Feats" , "Activities" , "Exploits" .)
