What is a sheet of paper made out of?

Trees are shredded down to their basic fibers, and these fibers are then pressed together to form paper. The quality of the fibers and their thickness contribute to the overall quality of the paper, with certain types of paper being designated as optimal for a specific purpose, such as printing, tracing, or drawing. Paper may be created from trees, or from recycled paper, which basically involves shredding the paper to be recycled, bleaching or removing the ink, and then pressing it into fresh sheets of paper. Regardless, most paper today is made of tree by-products, and many forests are planted and grown with the explicit intention of chopping down those trees for more paper. Normal sheet paper is 100% tree fiber, while other papers, such as glossy or photo paper, includes additional treatments or chemicals to give them their desirable properties.
