Using Emboss to Make Patterns and Characters Stand Out
Using a gloss layer provides an uneven surface, creating an embossed product.
Because the gloss layer can result in a slightly yellowish color, the gloss layer should be placed under the pattern.
However, the color of the gloss can aect the color of the pattern, so a white layer must be printed between the
gloss and the pattern.
[1]: Pattern printing
[2]: White printing for improved color development
[3]: Gloss layering for creating unevenness
