Abstract: An embosser combined with a steel rule die for embossing sheets of stock where the embosser includes an insert positioned within an opening formed in the steel rule die. Threaded bores are formed in the steel rule die and extended into its opening. Screws are threaded into the threaded bores and contact the embosser insert such that longitudinal movement of the screw in the bore is translated into lateral movement of the insert for adjustable registration of the embosser with the print on a sheet of stock.
