Paper is a thin material produced by pressing together moist fibers, typically derived from wood, rags, or grasses, and drying them into flexible sheets. It is primarily used for writing, printing, packaging, and a variety of other applications. The invention of paper is traditionally attributed to the Chinese court official Cai Lun in the 2nd century CE, although earlier forms existed.
