Style book
by Bashmeg
Style book gives players a rich text editor for writable and signed books, with colored hex text, formatting and up to 50 pages per book.
What it does
Players open a book and edit it in a rich text editor. Text can be colored with hex codes and formatted as bold, italic, strikethrough and similar styles. A single book can hold up to 50 pages, which lets long notes, guides or stories stay in one item.
Operators have extra control: they can sign a book under a different author name, and they can change the contents of books that have already been signed. Style book needs Fabric API and runs on the client and the server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Fabric only, across the game versions 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.1.2 and 26.2, and the code is all rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Rich text editor
Books open in an editor that handles colors and text styles directly, without commands or external tools.
Hex colors
Text color can be set with hex values, so any shade can be used instead of the fixed palette.
Text formatting
Bold, italic, strikethrough and other styles can be applied to any part of the book text.
Fifty pages per book
Each book holds up to 50 pages of text, enough for long notes, manuals or written stories.
Operator signing and editing
Operators can sign a book with a chosen author name and change the content of signed books.

Who it’s for: Players who write in books and server owners who give staff a richer editor for in-game text. Both the server and each player need the mod installed.
How it compares
Book Formatting is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, client-side only, and covers 1.19.3 – 1.21.5 on Fabric. InSearchOfNames-Book-Writer is open source under the Apache License 2.0, client-side only, and covers 1.21.11 – 26.2. Style book is not open source and runs on both sides, but it covers the newer 1.21.1 – 26.2 releases in the same catalog.
