Does anyone know what omnibuses, codexes, tomes etc etc actually look like in a room?

What can be put in them, if anything, and what can books be put into?

Even several trademasters dont have a clue, so if someone could fill the gaps in that would be great.

They look like any other item. As far as I know, the only difference between books is the number of pages, and if they're org or personal.

A grand omnibus rests here, light glinting softly from its jewelled covers.
A large arcanum rests here heavily, awaiting an eager reader.

Those are the two public omnibus designs.
Things like that. It's in the dropped desc. The trademaster should have a clue. It's different for every item.

Libraries haven't been implemented yet, they're working on them.

how can a tome rest heavily? It must've had a very exhausting day.

I'm wondering what happens with a compendium when you leave it in a room. Can any old Moondancer come and take it away? Will it reset to where it is left? I assume that is how it will work with libraries, but beforehand...I think I'll keep this compendium on me until then.

Flame it

I need to get some flame sigils that are nearly decayed, with maybe 10-20 months on them... So I can have books stick around until libraries are implemented.

Noo I don't want flame sigils on it. I'll just cuddle it until then.

The freaking formatting is a nightmare :S. When did 'TAB' becomes such a hard typing feature to understand?!

Formatting's simple - don't let the editor wordwrap for you. Type it all out in a notepad session that's sized for the width of the editor (70 characters, I think?), and hit enter at the end of each line. A bit annoying for editing, but worth it for the simplicity of adding it into Lusternia.

I have it figured now I guess, but I still don't get why I can't use the tab key...:S. Oh well.

EDIT: Actually, Shorlen, how do I set the character spacing? I thought I had it, but I assume the different sizes of characters screwed me up, seeing as I said it by width rather than specific character number.

Use a fixed-width font, like Courier New.

I was looking for one, thanks!

Fixedsys!

Andale Mono.

Neither of which I have in word or wordpad, for some reason :S. I could download them, but, nyeh.

I log onto the java client to write stuff

I do too, but it doesn't help the problem of trying to cut+paste :S.

less hijacks, more bookbinding info

Another question. Does anyone know if the journals you bind for others reset to them? I've not been able to test it yet, and was hoping someone else had.

I've no idea, but I do know that scrolls bound for a specific person don't reset to them. I think it is just a way to control who can edit certain books.
