The opening sentence begins:
"The Declaration of Independence, formally titled The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America (in the embossed version but not the original printing), ..."
change "embossed" to "engrossed".
I don't think the editor was referring to a Braille edition.

Not done: considering that "engross" means "interesting", your request makes no sense. "Emboss" does not solely refer to Braille, you may find
Paper embossing of interest
