reams
Lots of sheets
Reams means large quantities, especially of written or printed material: She produced reams of notes for the meeting, He wrote reams about his travels.
The word comes from the paper industry, where a ream is a specific quantity—traditionally 480 sheets, now usually 500.
The plural emphasizes abundance, often with a hint of excess.
