    Nvidia offer a plug-in for photoshop (google: nvidia normal map plugin). There's also programs like crazybump.

    GIMP also has a bump/normal map plugin.

    I have used the one for GIMP and it seems to work well given you are creating a normal map from a picture, rather than a 3d object (which is possible from what I understand).

    Check out that link Daquila posted as well as this one from Chris Albelhun.
