View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a logo similar to the picture I have attached. It isn't exactly embossed, rather imprinted. I am trying to use the digit 6 in avant garde/ century gothic font 62pts, same colors. Somehow, I can't seem to get the desired effect using the embed/bevel layer setting.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI thought maybe just a bevel with lighting and a gradient but nothing I tried came close. The edges seem more precise than anything I did and the creases in the letters, like near the top-right of the 'a' or the middle of the 'h', seem to have depth that an ordinary bevel doesn't create.
View 4 Replies View RelatedLayers with a layer style applied, mostly of the bevel or emboss variety, lose the effect when the layers are merged or the image flattened. Doesn't seem to happen with any other styles, like drop shadows or glows: those will stay, but the bevel will not. These are all Normal layers, nothing tricky going on. It's a program fault and I need to know if there's a workaround. I'm having to resort to saving the whole unflattened image as a jpeg so the client can proof the work, but sooner or later I'm going to need to flatten the image.

Using Mac PS CS5 Extended, abundance of RAM & Disk space.
It would be cool if Adobe would have provided a Reverse checkbox for Bevel & Emboss effects, like they did for the Gradients. Is there a quick way to reverse a bevel and emboss effect or do I have to adjust each setting manually?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI created a file in .psd, with several text layers to which I applied effects (fx) such as stroke, bevel & emboss, outer glow. When I flatten the image, the outer glow and stroke remain, but the bevel & emboss effect is gone. Type is a single color without the 3 dimensional effect.
Â
I am also not able to preserve the bevel & emboss look when saving as a jpeg or a flattened .tif or .pdf. A saved .tif or .pdf with layers shows the effect just fine, but if the pdf is opened with Acrobat instead of Photoshop, the effect is not visible.
Â
This must be a new problem, because I found a file that I created several years ago that is a flattened .tif with the bevel & emboss effect preserved.
Â
I tried rasterizing the layer, and the type. Tried converting to 16 bit changing mode to CMYK, and multi-channel. Everything that involved merging layers lost the bevel & emboss effect.
If i apply gradient then bevel effect the gradient effect disappear, how do i do this? what im trying to do is the piping.

Why is this happening? Do you have to apply the effect seperately when the object is rescaled?
I am trying to create the handle for a coffee cup in this tutorial here [URL] .... but the settings that I apply in the 3D Extrude & Bevel effect have no effect on the image. What am I doing wrong? I have the line selected.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI design flags for people and have worked with Illustrator for just over a year. Most logo's I've worked are 2D and I've never had any issues that I could overcome ( I learn as I go along) however I have been given a logo which has the Extrude & Bevel effect on (which I haven't worked with before) (see first image). I have to make this logo much bigger but when i do it stretches and reshapes the logo. (see 2nd image).

The scale stroke & effect box, is checked. I am working in CS6. So how do I resize this logo proportionately?
I have encountered a problem with the bevel effect of corel draw that I can't seem to resolve. I have a vector image and I convert to curves. Click on effects/bevel/soft edge bevel. I set my distance, I set my shadow colour & light colour and when I apply the bevel it changes the face colour to a murky combination of the original vector colour/shadow colour & light colour. I do not want to change the face colour of the text in any way. Â
View 7 Replies View RelatedWhen adding a grain pattern effect to an object in Illustrator CS6 I get an odd bevel that surrounds the object. There is nothing in the Appearance window to suggest that there should be a bevel and I didn't add it myself.
Is there some setting I am missing or an easy way to remove the effect? For now I am masking the object with a slightly smaller object but it's starting to drastically increase the size of my file.
I wonder if the bevel tool works with pantone color?
I just couldn't get the result.
I'm running Gimp 2.8.4 on Ubuntu 13.04 Linux (64-bit) and I'm trying touse the "Bevel and Emboss" layer effect on an image which I copied fromanother image. Here is what I've done:
1. Loaded image 'A' into Gimp
2. Selected a portion of it
3. Used "/Edit/Copy" to copy the selection
4. Used "/Edit/Paste As/New image" to create a new image from the selection
5. In the new window for the new image, "/FX-Foundry/Layer effects/Bevel and Emboss"
6. When the "Bevel and Emboss" window opens, I accept the defaults and click "Ok"
The filter starts to run and then stops with an error message. Here is the message I get:
------------ START ------------------
Bevel and Emboss Message
Error while executing script-fu-layer-effects-bevel-and-emboss:
Error: ( : 1) Procedure execution of gimp-selection-layer-alpha failed on invalid input arguments: Item 'Pasted Layer copy' (87) cannot be used because it has not been added to an image
----------- END -------------------
Evertime I try to open my 3-D Extrude and Bevel it opens the option screen but when I select anything on the screen it freezes then the program closes.

Is there a way to bevel that stoke?
Is there any plug-in that has more control over bevel/emboss than the basic PS 7 effects. Or has CS 2 improved on the PS 7? Mainly for use with Text.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have this texture and I need to bevel all the edges to the inside.
I have CS6 if it can make things faster.
How can I get a bevel to appear as if it was metallic?
Like a smooth and shiny metal surface.
In photoshop7 I make a coloured vector shape.
Then I apply a bevel with an obvious highlight and shadow.
Heres the question:
Is there anyway to then hide the shape so that I just have the bevel and shadow, so that I can overlay this elsewhere
Obviously hiding the shape hides the effect aswell....
I have text that has a bevel applied to it.
Is there a way I can have a pattern wrap around the 3D text?
For example if I wanted Drop Shadow to appear on top of Bevel / Emboss? tried draging them in the dialogue box but no joy.

View 3 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop CS6 incorrectly displays Layer Styles when zoomed out. Different zooms display Layer Styles differently.I've noticed this issue since PS's document display engine was changed along with the addition on enhanced GPU support, but it never really hampered my work, until today.so, notice the lowercase "c" has some odd light colored shapes inside of it. These are there because I've applied a Bevel. Just how it should be be.

-This is 100% zoom:
-Now 50% zoom:Â (notice the difference)
-Now 25% zoom:Â (big difference)
I was actually working 25% carefully tweaking my little candy letters to get 'em lookin' all nice and shiny. Got to a happy point but then zoomed in. I was dismayed to see the extra bevel I'd applied look like garbage (refer to 100% zoom pic, above).

this project is huge - 28x36in 300DPI poster. Zooming in and out constantly sucks. I don't use Layer Styles that often but when I do I'd like to know that PS isn't lying to me when I'm zoomed out.
In order to make some geometric shapes in my artwork look like "3D", i use the "Inner Bevel" filter and for this case, with a "hard chisel" parameter. The result shows also a stripped pattern, which I don't want. What's the cause and how do I fix this?

For an example, here is a screenshot:
