Embossing and Debossing is the process of leaving a relief imprint on substrate. It is applied in the same process as foil stamping, in which a metal die is pressed to leave an impression. When looking for subtle image qualities, embossing or debossing create a textured surface. Embossing and debossing give an upscale appearance to almost any logo or type. Use it with silk-screening or foil stamping for an even more elegant look. Embossing/Debossing is used when printing turned edge loose-leaf binders, custom covers, index tabs, presentation folders, and media packaging applications.
