Toneless Tomba has one that does all of that. His store is THiNC.

Yes, it's true, I have a blog now!

Thanks for the speedy replies and help but I need something for the scripting challenged..Graphics are my field :) I need something prebuilt or easy instructions... also I left a messege for that book creator to get back in touch with me but I haven't heard a word..and the thinc book is awesome but its no copy that makes it not usable for what I need...so I'll keep hitting the pavement and keep looking...its got to be out there somewhere....

From: THiNC Book Notecard
Basically sky is the limit. A publication package is available. Create your own custom book first using the THiNC Book. Once you are done IM Toneless Tomba. We will create a copyable & transferable publication for you to own. This means you can make as many copies of it as you want and sell it, give out free, it is yours to distribute. Your textures and snapshots are protected and are not physically in each publication but can be viewed just like your original. Pricing at the time of writing this notecard is $395 for the first publication. Any publications afterwards is $100


So they have planned for such a thing that you want.. you just didn't read that far into the notecard?

Yes it does. Oops just saw what Gaz wrote, what he says. It's made specifically for publications. Just dummy up the first copy and give it to Toneless and he'll make a copyable version of that for distribution.

If you're not in a hurry for it I'd happily have a go at making one in exchange for advertising space in a future issue (once I've finished something worth selling).

Printing text

It appears that Toneless Tomba has now created a Printing Press that is compatible with the book, so others can reproduce the first book, yet set copies as "transfer - no copy - no mod"

I'm also looking for such a tool, but not to publish graphics, but to publish text long enough to make writing it in Paint and saving it into a THiNK book (or similar) as a graphic not practical.

Any other tools available competitive with Toneless' nice work?
