== Inscribing ==
It is possible to write notes on a papyrus sheet.{{Inscribing}}
* Fill a [[reed pen]] with [[black ink]] or [[dye]]
* Activate the reed pen
* Right-click the papyrus sheet and select ''Inscribe''
* Enter the text in the window and click send
After a papyrus sheet is inscribed it gets the option to 'read inscription', which opens a window with the inscribed text.
The number of letters you can write on a sheet of papyrus is 121 + (pen QL * 2). Decimals are counted, so a 40.50ql pen allows one more letter than a 40.49ql pen.
== Mail ==
You can mail the inscribed papyrus sheet for a reduced cost of 1i to any server in the same server cluster.
Sending cross server does not double the cost, but:
''If <playername> does not return or accept the item before it expires (usually in two weeks), it will be lost. The inter-island mail service can not handle expired returns.''
* The amount of letters you can inscribe is affected by::*QL of Papyrus Sheet== See Also ==:*QL of Reed Pen:*QL of dye or ink:*Dye has an offset of 10 letters[[Book]]:*Ink has an offset of 100 letters.The number of letters you can inscribe is therefore equal to "(the offset) + (QL of dye/ink) + (QL of papyrus sheet) + (QL of reed pen)" * Trying to drop papyrus sheets into a [[bulk storage binPaper sheet]] returns the message: ''The inscription on the papyrus sheet would be destroyed''.:* Blank papyrus sheets can be placed into a [[bulk storage binPress]] without issue.* The inscription contains some characters that are too complex for you to inscribe - you are limited by the characters that you can use when renaming an item in game. If you try to use question marks, you will get an error message.
