Adding a shine effect to custom font characters is a very quick way to add a lift to its appearance.

This update provides more user control over the thickness of the highlight. Version 0.03 allowed greater control of the embossing effect which could become rather dark, especially when using bigger width sizes.

Increasing the emboss width could also affect the thickness of the highlight in earlier versions; this can now be fine-tuned via the ‘Highlight blur adjustment’ setting.

In version 0.02 with an emboss width of 30 the highlight has almost disappeared.
