substituting leaf gelatine sheets?

Im making a panacotta recipe and it calls for sheets of leaf gelatine. Since I'm from the US, its hard to find gelatine sheets so I bought regular gelatine powder envelopes instead. In the recipe the gelatine are to be soaked in cold water, squeezed, and added into the cream mixture. How would I approach it with powdered gelatine? Just pour? 1 envelope per sheet? Does it require any extra steps?

    Sheet Gelatin, also called Leaf Gelatin, works like granular gelatin found in your local grocery store, but in a different form. Rather than a powder, it is takes the shape of thin sheets or leaves of gelatin film. The sheets dissolve more slowly than the granulated form, but also produce a clearer gelled product..,
