Historically, parchment from hide was made using the skin of much larger animals than the common hare, such as goats, sheep, etc. This goes a step further, allowing all sizes of hide, with a sliding scale of returns based on hide size.

In vanilla, a full batch of 25 small scraped hides will net you that many parchment, which is about 3 books worth of parchment per batch.

Medium scraped hides will produce 3 parchment for 36 per 50 gallon batch, for 4 books plus extra paper.

Large produces 5 parchment each, 5 books per batch of 8.

And finally, if you've managed to slay 5 bears, or stumbled upon their inability to swim, huge scraped hides will produce a whopping 10 parchment each, for 6 books per batch.

This is going to be a nice addition to my world. Hides just keep going to rot because I have no use for them. This mod and craftable paper lanterns is going to save my hide, literally.

Still sorks in version 1.20.11.

I can understand that small hides are pretty much useless so they added the ability to turn them into parchment but...
Makes sense that larger hides SHOULD make parchment too with even larger amounts.
