Some of the manuscripts were 500, 600 pages, sometimes written by one scribe.
I don't know how they did it. It's not comfortable writing with a quill and sharpening it every few lines. Even with a ballpoint pen, it would be mindnumbing to do nothing but copy day-in and day-out. It often took a year to pen a manuscript.
