Copy and Paste
Armour Stands with custom poses can have their data stored in armour stand items by throwing a book with `copy` and armour stand items at this armour stand. This will copy its pose, base plate and size to the item and some particles will be displayed to indicate that it has been copied successfully. Placing this item will create an armour stand with the same pose as the original one.
| Code | Additional | Description |
|---|---|---|
| copy | Armour stand item(s) on the ground | Copy pose, base plate and size information onto the armour stand items |
| paste | Armour stand item (from `copy`) on the ground | Copy pose, base plate and size information from the armour stand item onto the armour stand |
