Compose a written book with colors, gradients and formatting, preview it on a real page, and copy a ready /give command.
✔ renders in vanilla Java chat & signs. Bedrock's font is narrower, test before relying on a glyph. Full-color emoji (😀) only show in Discord and nicknames, not in-game.
A written book stores styled text as JSON pages inside the item's NBT, which is why hand-writing one is fiddly. Compose your text here with the full styling toolkit, colors, hex, gradients, bold and italic, and preview it on an authentic book-page mockup that respects the real page width (~114px) so lines wrap the way they will in game. When you're happy, copy a complete /give written_book command that hands a player the finished book. It's ideal for lore, server rules, quest text or a signed gift. For multi-page books you can build and copy page by page, and the version selector keeps the NBT syntax correct for your Minecraft version.
Type in the editor and style selections like a word processor, bold, colors, gradients. Paste existing § or & codes and they import as styled text.
See your text on authentic chat, sign, server-list, book and item-tooltip renders, with warnings when a line won't fit or a style won't work on Bedrock.
One click switches between § codes, & plugin codes, hex, MiniMessage, /tellraw and MOTD escapes. Copy, share as a link, or download a PNG.
Click any row to use it on your selected text instantly.
Underline, strikethrough and hex colors are Java-only. §k animates random characters in-game, and in our preview.
Copy the /give written_book command this tool generates and run it in chat (as op) or from a command block. It creates the book already filled with your styled text.
About 114px per line before the text wraps. The book preview mirrors that width so you can see wrapping before you generate the command.
Type your text, pick two or more colors in the gradient bar and hit Apply. Every character gets interpolated automatically. Export as &#hex or MiniMessage for modern servers, or §x sequences for vanilla Java 1.16+.
The 16 classic colors, bold, italic and magic text work on Bedrock. Hex colors, underline and strikethrough are Java-only. Flip on the Bedrock check and the tool flags anything unsupported before you paste it in-game.
MiniMessage is the text format used by Paper, Velocity and the Adventure library, most modern plugins accept it in configs. It reads like HTML: <red><b>text</b>, and supports full hex colors and gradients.
Yes, paste any § or & string straight into the editor and it becomes styled text. Or open the § Code view and edit raw codes; both views stay in sync.
The /tellraw pill gives you a complete command ready for chat or a command block. The JSON pill gives you the raw text component for /title, books, or datapacks.
Everything autosaves in your browser. You can also save named presets, or copy a share link that encodes your whole creation in the URL, nothing is ever sent to a server.
