Evidence
"واكتب على قرطاس (p. 6), واكتب في ورقة (p. 11)"
Remarks
The substrate is referred to interchangeably as 'Qirtas' (historically papyrus or paper) and 'Waraq' (paper). Given the period of the manuscript copy, it is likely rag paper. The text discusses writing charms and recipes specifically on these substrates to activate their 'Khawass' (properties) (p. 3, 6, 11).
