Your measurements seemed to only evaluate a single dimension of the
paper. Most papers have a "grain" oriented in a certain direction.
Have you measured changes both in the direction of the grain and
perpendicular to the grain. I suspect that for many papers these
changes will differ perhaps akin to what Judy reported with a paper only
shrinking in one of its dimensions.
