So, perhaps use acid-free paper and print the data as QR codes using a laser printer?

Paperbak[1] is a good program for that.
The problem is not wood paper as such, it's production processes that leave some acidic substances in the paper, which causes it to become yellow and brittle on a timescale of a few decades.
Acid-free paper will easily last hundreds of years, and is nowadays easily available.
