Debossing mockups
Debossing presses the logo into the material. PreviewFly sinks it by one level; the edge facing the light brightens, the other holds a thin shadow. On leather and kraft it is one of the most common ways to mark without ink.

Debossing, asked often
Is it shown in colour?
No: a blind deboss has no ink. For colour in the deboss, combine with foil in production.
