engraved look with the user's actual personal information. So, each image
will be dynamically generated from

Yes, you can do this with cfimage. cfimage uses a Java library, so you are
already using one. ;-)

I can use ImageDrawText() to write text on top of the image, but I want to make
the text look engraved. ImageDrawText can’t do that as far as I can tell. The
text has to distort the underlying image to make this look right. You can do

So you'll need to look closely at the distortion that photoshop is doing
to re-create the effect. It be take several steps like an inner bevel
then a shadow, etc. But this should be possible.
