Torney's Book Editor - Embed Images Directly in Minecraft Books

Bring your Minecraft books to life! TorneyBook is a lightweight Fabric mod that allows you to embed, position, resize, and store images directly inside Book and Quill or Written Books. Each page can hold its own unique images, giving you full creative control for guides, roleplay content, server lore, rules, or interactive storytelling.

Notes

Extremely large images may increase NBT size, but images >5MB or >2048×2048 pixels are safely rejected
To edit an image: navigate to the page containing the image, ensure it’s highlighted in green in the preview, then apply changes. Use “Next” to select the correct image if needed.
Adding more than 10 images will not kick you from the server; extra images are ignored with a warning.
