  1. BLIND EMBOSSING OR DEBOSSING

  2. WHATcan make an IMAGEstand out from a PAGE

  3. Simply by creating a raised area using a die, blind (or inkless) embossing creates a subtle paper coloured image that can be felt as well as seen

  4. DEBOSSING uses the same technique to create an INDENTATION

  5. Like a piece of fine sculpture, blind embossing or debossing creates both visual and tactile appeal

  6. An embossed image is formed using male and female dies

  7. When embosssed, the image is raised; when debossed, the image is sunk below the paper surface

  8. EMBOSSING DIES COME IN SEVERAL DIFFERENT STYLES

  9. A flat die creates a three-dimensional image that is raised above the paper surface • A round die creates a curved image curving out from the paper surface • Bevelled embossing gives an image with sloping sides and allows for a deeper impression • Sculptured dies create real dimension by forming the paper to several layers

  10. TO ACHIEVE THE BEST RESULTS Blind embossing basically flattens the paper in the embossed area so it is always more effective on textured paper stocks or laid sheets where it creates a contrast in the paper surface

  11. Line art and typography for embossing should be proofed at reproduction size, care must be taken in spacing type so that letters have room to form

  12. EMBOSSING Successfully combined with other fine print reproduction techniques Engraving Lithography Foil stamping
