Emboss Text Embossed textures look great for text and they’re easy to do in Photoshop. Start with a new texture or with a plain color. Create a new channel and type your text (don't deselect). Defloat your selection and use the Gaussian Blur filter with a setting between two and four. Go back to the layer with your texture and select the Lighting Effects filter. Use the following settings (top to bottom): Omni, Check, 13, 25, 0, 14, 20, #4 Channel, Check, 20. To add more contrast, choose Select>>Inverse and fill with a solid color.
