Here is my dilemma, I have BobCad V21 & BobArt Pro X. I take a 2 dimensional line drawing and emboss over to Bob-Art. When I set the elevation and curve parameters they go from outside edge to the center. Is there a way to slope from one outside edge to the other. Example: I want the bottom edge at an elevation .1 and the top edge at an elevation .25. I seem to be able to get the outside edges to .1 and the center to .25, but I have found no way to elevate from edge to edge. Can this be done on the BobArt side? Or do I need to set the elevations on the BobCad side? Very appreciative if anyone can give me a step by step example.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I can't see just what you are trying to get done. Embossing usually takes a closed figure and embosses from the outside towards the center. depending on what your actual geometry is there is probably a better way to to it.
What is the shape you are dealing with, I have some ideas to deal with various shapes but all take different approaches.

I am trying to create a relief panel from seveal 2 dimensional shapes. If I go to the BobCad side I can create the slope I am looking for by using the Cross Section method under create surface. To do this for every shape I have would be extremly time consuming. I was hoping to somehow select the 2D drawing and convert it over to BobArt adding the slope in a similar way as embossing the shape. Here is a picture that I created on the BobCad side of what I am trying to get done. Is it possible?

I see no way to make that type of object by using emboss. If the shapes are similar but different scale, then copy and scale will work. If the profiles are different then it would seem to me that you are going to have to loft each object by itself.

That's what I was afraid of.
