Making paper a 'gem' means that it'll end up being being placed in gem piles and that you'll end up getting cut versions of it from Caravans.

You could make a 'paper' plant, that only has non-millable leaves, and doesn't appear in nature-- I do this for decorative woods/non-plant dyes.

This means that it probably will show up on caravans in its raw form.

Then you can make other plants for the differing kinds of books. That way you can do something like...

[REAGENT:A:10:PLANT:LEAVES:PLANT_MAT:PAPER:LEAVES]
[PRODUCT:100:1:PLANT:LEAVES:PLANT_MAT:CARPENTER_BOOK:LEAVES]

Then make your 'reading' stations or whatever use those.

If you do want to make origami you can make it a Metal and tag it with '[ITEMS_HARD]', or something.

Hmm. Maybe the sheets of paper are a large size/ have rough edges, and you actually need to cut them.

A few people have tried this over the years weeks months and from what I've seen, the one you used in the first post should work perfectly unless you have a problem with humans being able to make flattened wood products.
