Okay this may seem a bit stupid but does anyone have a waving problem with their book pages? Here is a link with a picture of my book.

Does anyone know why this is happening to me? I know its merely cosmetic but its annoying this is also happening with my 4e books. I hear its from the binding process.
If you need any more pictures let me know.

Lol. But really has this happened to any of your books?
As I said in the other thread, many of my books look like this. Not just the paizo books. I would say it has to do with the humidity in your house.
Any idea on how to reverse this affect?
Moisture will cause page warping. What climate do you live in, and how do you store your books?

I live in Florida, so sub-tropical. I store them on a shelf.

As a former resident of the southern states, I can tell you from experience that the humidity is exactly what you are seeing the effects of.
The best thing to do is find a way to cut down on the air exposure the books see - such as putting them in a box or cabinet of some sort other container, buying a dehumidifier, or storing them with sillica packets on or around them.
As for the waving that has already happened... sometimes just reducing the moisture in the books remedies that, other times stacking them with a few books on top of them after you have reduced the moisture fixes it.
I have yet to see a book refuse to "flatten."
Thanks! Where can I get these silica packets? Also is a Dresser Drawer Okay?
A dresser drawer should be fine.
Out of curiosity.... I live in Florida as well and with the exception of some books that were in a walk in closet adjoined to a bathroom, I've never had any problems.
What temperature do you keep your a/c at?
Thats the thing... Our A/C is old and doesn't work any longer (Just this psst year). So I'm screwed on that side. :P
Any other thoughts?
Try a cooler, darker place. A trunk or chest in a closet would be a good alternative. I am no expert, so I could be wrong.
I'm trying this...
