Sorry, but if you have to go to some office and ensure them you're following the "rules of newspapers" or whatever, then that statement is incorrect. I can this instant decide to print out thousands of copies of whatever I want, drive down to some public area, and start handing out my documents (or charging for them), all without a visit to a government office. That's not illegal. Only "pornographic" material is inherently illegal to distribute (and that irks me, I assure you) (though not because I'm interested in that line of work).
I'll remind you that the supreme court has held that text-only works can not be held to be obscene. You can write anything you want, including explicit descriptions of sodomizing dead children, and it can not be censored. Perry
