Let the pile decompose into leaf mold, nature's way of making new soil under trees. It may take years. I rake my leaves into a pile beside the driveway and just leave them there, periodically pushing aside the leaves off the pile and scraping out the leaf mold on the bottom to use as potting soil, and periodically taking an armload of leaves to the compost. See the previous and next question. If you use leaves and your soil tends to be acidic already, periodically sprinkle an alkaline ingredient such as wood ashes, lime, or oyster shells on your compost pile.
Shredded paper is great.
Most ink these days is soy based, non-toxic. You can tear up your newspapers or use shredded paper from work. Solid paper is too air-blocking. Put a wire-grid cylinder around your pile if the paper blows away. Manure is a basic, old-fashioned, excellent ingredient for compost.
