You copy information from one surface to another. The information may be in any form - text, pictures, musical notation, etc - although magical writing is not transcribed. You can transcribe 100 pages no larger than 1 foot by 1 foot with a single casting of this spell, or all of the information inside a 10’ by 10’ square. The spell causes the transcription to scale to fit the new pages it occupies, although each page or section must be on a new page in the final document. In the case of a book or other closed medium, you must open it to each page as part of casting the spell (by flipping through it), which may be enough to set off a trap or other hazard.
At Higher Levels: At 5th level or higher, you can copy information from one source to two new media (book, scroll, pages, map, etc) of the same type in a single casting of this spell. You can copy information into three new media at 11th level, and four at 17th level.
