In order to use the embossing feature you first need a depth map file. I've teamed up with Coin Craft Studios to bring you a huge selection of designs. You can find those here:

Depth maps are greyscale images that contain shades of grey from values 0 - 255 that represent the relative distances of objects / surfaces. The white values would be closer to the view point, and the black values farther away. If you want to learn how to generate your own using various techniques then you should watch my other video here:
