The other thing to consider is the Ink. 
In Ancient and Medieval times,  the ink was not standardized, and
varied in the quantity of the ingredients.  All were permanent but
some were too acidic and burned through the paper. Many monastery
manuscripts centuries old are still in very good condition.

Today there are "Bulletproof" permanent inks
(not resistant to real bullets, but resistant to water, alcohol,
bleach, soap, and known solvents.)

The Noodler Eternal inks are available in a larger variety of
permanent colors, and are all fountain pen safe.
