Embossing compares each pixel's brightness with a neighbor in the direction of the light and the opposite neighbor on the other side. Where brightness rises toward the light, the result gets lighter; where it falls, it gets darker. Flat areas end up mid-gray, while edges turn into raised ridges with a highlight and a shadow.
Depth sets how far apart the compared pixels are, which widens the ridges. Strength multiplies the difference for more contrast. Engrave flips the sign so shapes look carved in, and the color mode adds the relief on top of the original colors instead of gray.
135 degrees lights the image from the top left, the classic embossed look.
Inverted relief makes logos and text look cut into the surface.
Gold and stone styles color the relief for quick material mockups.
Emboss makes shapes appear raised from the surface; engrave makes them look carved into it. The tool simply flips the direction of the lighting.

High-contrast images such as logos, text, coins and line art give crisp, clean relief.
