Speaking from a scientific perspective, is it true that if you get a liquid(particularly water)on paper, is the paper always going to curl?

I've been experimenting with weights on the paper to try to stop the curl, but it doesn't seem to work. Do weights have any effect?
What about drying time and method, if any?

"paper" is a very generic term for a flat sheet made out of any number of bonded of fibers. the type of fibers would depend on the curl. the paper money is printed on doesn't curl. don't know if there are experiments on what paper stays flat and what paper curls.

Unless you treat the paper carefully, liquid will disrupt the paper fiber mat and lead to some type of distortion.
