    How to set up print job for embossing that needs to be done?

      Hi everyone,

      Can you tell me what the best way is to set up a job in ID that needs embossing done? The project is our company Christmas card. There is also going to be a dull varnish over the whole image.

       

      What makes it more complicated is that I would like the embossing to have some "variation" to it....let me explain further.

      In the Christmas image, at the back of Santa's sleigh is a heap of colored balls or different sizes. I don't want the entire heap to be one big raised piece...I would rather there to be some way for there to be different heights in the embossing...so that parts of that "heap of balls" is raised more than other parts...so that the embossing on each ball is a little different (some are raised more than others). Does this make sense? It's turning out to be harder to explain than I had originally anticipated !

       

      Also, how can one specify whether the embossing is to be convex or concave (raised or having a "pressed down" appearance)

       

      Thank you very much in advance for your help... very much appreciated!

       

      Thank you,

      Christine
