You can cut a deign into the board and when you cover it with book cloth the design will be debossed into the cover.
When using davey board for a book cover, the grain should always be running vertically. When you buy davey board, it specifies on the packaging which way the grain is running. Usually, it will be running the long way. The reason that it needs to be running vertically is because if the davey board is running horizontally, the covers of your book will warp in strange and unpredictable ways.
