I would also prefer tIq over nI', but it might certainly be possible 
there's another word for that. The word {tIq} makes me think of 
something that is somehow longer than wide, such as a rope or a stick.

When you have a text and you would write the lines next to each other 
without making a line break, then it will be a "long" text. But i'm not 
sure one would say that the bible, as an example, is a {lut tIq}.

In this case, also remember the quite new word {qargh} which is used to 
describe a "thick book". (but still does not answer the question of a 
"long text").
