It would be interesting to try to have actual registration so that the embossed design can interact with the printed copy rather that just being an arbitrary background decoration.

The way I understand your comment is you could have a scene or objects printed on a card, then line up an embossed design over the print to create depth or imprint specific areas of the print creating various effects. That would be interesting

also a tool that generates the emboss pattern based on the design of the card. so that for example a logo on the card gets embossed.

For some inexplicable reason, this site does not load properly for me. It also has apparently eaten all my memory. Edit: it works if you put it through archive.ph: https://archive.ph/ruSeX And here’s the model collection: https://makerworld.com/en/collections/453534-business-card-e...

Same problem for me on Firefox.

Same. But disable JavaScript and you can see it.

Same issue for me on Android + Firefox. It times out connections in other apps too and brings my phone to a halt.
