Nah, I just presume that whatever scribes are writing such things have a modicum of magical expertise as part of their training. Just like anyone writing a shared/commercial text in that period would have had education in the basics of calligraphy, and then if they went on to a specific scribal duty they would have further education along those proper lines. For example, a religious scribe would likely have further training in illuminating text and applying gold leaf to ornamental capitals.

Personally I'm more interested in sociological structures and holistic systems than I am in picayune fiscal details and rule minutae. My primary goal is an interesting and believable worlds with well thought-out backstories that are fun to play in. Happily, TFT can accommodate both the lawyerly grognard and the creative storyteller.
