Working on serveral designs in Photoshop where I have the Bevel & Emboss effect turned on and getting unwanted results when I rasterize the layer or just try and export the layer as PNG file.

I need to rasterize the effects in order to export several layers as PNGs. This issue happnes whenever I export a layer with effects to PNG and tansparency, or if I just rasterize layer in the PSD. I am using an "Outer Bevel" on a shape, Technique is "Smooth" with Highlight Mode and Shadow Mode set as soft light. Rasterizing, the effect seems to get enhanced. I've been able to replicate the issue in a new PSD. Anyone seen this or can help?

1- This is the inital file. Shows as I want.

2 - This is my Bevel & Emboss settings.

3 - This is the unwanted result.

One Layer cannot have more than one Blend Mode.

So the »Soft Light« setting in the Layer Style cannot be maintained in one rasterized Layer.

You have a White Stroke on the Blue Rectangle.

Can you show us those settings?

Rasterize layer first, then apply Bevel & Emboss fx.

Unfortuanlty that didn't work. Even after I rasterize the layer, the problem still happens when I Rasterize the Layer Style or export jus tthe layer as a PNG.
