Emboss surface using an image (jpg)

Rhino Rhino for Windows
1

Hello,
I was creating a book in 3d
I wanted to emboss a surface on that model using an image. I want to use the 3d file to process it in a CNC machine.
using a greyscale image so the blacks would emboss the surface, and white would leave it unchanged.

here is an example to explain my problem

thank you

Under the Tabs, there is a “Render Tools” tab. If you go there, and you will see a “Apply Displacement” button. I would try that and see if it gives you a good result.

With a detailed image like that one I bet you’ll need to adjust the settings and also have a custom render mesh on the page surface. Here’s a video tutorial as well…
