A powder pressing plate assembly includes a pressing plate having a plurality of pressing tools and at least one etched plate attached to a pressing tool face of at least one of the plurality of pressing tools. The etched plate includes a design that may be embossed into a substrate. The design may be computer generated and then transferred to the etched plate via a solvent-less thermal exposure process, exposure to certain solvents used to wash away unwanted material, or built up using a three-dimensional printing or additive manufacturing process.
