Following is a list of the effects you can expect when using the emboss
feature.

  Text Object Fill      Emboss Effect
  ----------------      -------------

  Shaded two-color      Text picks up the first of the selected
                        shading colors.

  Shaded one-color      Text picks up the selected shading color.

  Shaded preset         Text picks up the last solid color selected,
                        or the fill color from the slide color scheme.
                        (Depends on how the text box was previously
                        formatted.)

  Textured fill         Text picks up the background color from the
                        slide color scheme.

  Patterned fill        Text picks up the background color from the
                        Pattern Fill dialog box.

  Other Color fill      Text picks up the new fill color.

  No Fill               Text picks up the background color from the
                        slide color scheme.

  Background fill       Text picks up the color from the slide
                        background, based on the background formatting.
