Explanation:
Habría que ver un poco más el contexto, pero creo que tiene que ver con que las hojas de un cierto documento estén terminadas/ finalizadas.

agree  Bubo Coroman (X): "fully completed" (para que quede completamente claro)
41 mins
  -> si, me parece bien "fully completed"

neutral  spanruss: Yes, it is difficult to tell with the context given whether the pages are yet to drafted or merely compiled.

"completar" is usually fill in (=rellenar) when referring to forms...

neutral  spanruss: You might be right, neilmac. However, you would "fill in" a blank, box or space; while you would "fill out" a form. English has got to be the craziest language!
59 mins
  -> I consider fill in /out as synonyms and would use either for form filling

agree  claudia16 (X): when the whole of the document is filled in

Neilmac makes a good point. I'm now inclined to go with what he and the others are suggesting, but I would suggest a less awkward phrasing: "When all of the pages of the document have been filled out."
