How to make a book

[Schiffe_Rat 1]

Wanted to do a book like this on the enchanting table without it? Unfortunately you can't unbind the book from the block, so there's a trick.

 

Erase the block faces from texture of enchanting table, so there's only the book texture left (or download: book.png).

Then make an Enchanting Table through Special Block and select that texture.

Ready! The table block is unclickable, because it's fully alpha on texture, so you can click just the book.

Note: The object family is Enchanted Table > Table > Book and they do the same things, but watch which object you set position to. I prefer resetting all to 0, and then changing Book's data only.
