The Torah is available in printed form in any Bible (the books of Genesis through Deuteronomy), not to mention the copies of the Chumash typically found in synagogue sanctuaries and Jewish homes, but the scrolls used for the public Torah reading in a Jewish service must be hand copied by a trained scribe and written on animal-skin parchment using oak-gall ink and a reed or feather pen. This is a matter of Jewish tradition and Jewish law, backed by numereous passages scattered through the Talmud and codified in later codes of Jewish law.
