 Milestone 4 now includes stackable blank Pages plus server-created symbol,

 legacy runtime-composition rules. Craft an Ink Vial from two black dye, a glass
-bottle, and a water bucket; the bucket is returned. Hold a blank Page in one
+bottle, and a water bucket; the bucket is returned. Hold vanilla paper in one
 hand and use the Ink Vial in the other to prepare a baseline Link Panel Page.
 Each vial holds 16 ink units, and the default link-panel cost is two units.
 The spent vial returns a glass bottle. Server owners can adjust the symbol-copy
 and link-panel costs in the `writing` section of `rivencraft-server.toml`.
-Symbol-page transcription will become available through the Writing Desk.
+The Writing Desk can copy a selected written page from its collection tabs.
+The Writing Desk is now craftable from planks, a glass bottle, and a feather.
+It occupies two adjacent blocks, with one shared inventory; loaded paper and
+the selected page appear on its Legacy-inspired model.
+Desks placed before 0.3.6.1 keep their old one-block footprint until broken
+and placed again; leave an adjacent space when replacing one.
+Its four collection tabs, paper input, ink vial input, empty glass-bottle return,
+16-unit ink meter, and inventory persist
+through world saves; breaking it drops stored contents. The desk screen is a
+functional foundation styled after Legacy's left tabs, central writing surface,
+and right inventory. Put vanilla paper in the
+upper-left slot and Ink Vials in the upper-right; a copy appears in the
+lower-left result slot when the selected page is valid. Taking it consumes one
+paper and, by default, one ink. An empty meter consumes a vial to refill and
+returns a vanilla glass bottle to the lower-right slot. The ALL browser searches
+and filters symbols held in the desk's loose pages and Notebooks; selection
+is validated against the server's current symbol catalog.
+Selecting a stored page on the desk surface shows its Legacy-proportioned
+portrait preview and name above the player inventory.
