Embossed or Debossed?
This is the processes of creating either raised or recessed relief images and designs in paper and other materials. An embossed pattern is raised against the background, while a debossed pattern is sunken into the surface of the material. With debossing the indentation can then be filled with ink. Ideally to get the best results, embossing and debossing needs to be applied to thicker paper stocks or card and gives your print items a feeling of quality and value.
Embossing your print with foils
To create a greater feeling of luxury, embossing and debossing can be used with block foils or if printing on the HP Indigo printer with special inks such as metallic and fluorescent inks. To read more on the benefits of printing digitally visit our page on digital print.
