Text embossing tool on curved surfaces

Is it possible to use the text embossing tool on compound curved surfaces? I'm trying to add some branding information on the outside curved surface of a torus (donut) shaped object which curves in X, Y, and Z planes. It LOOKS correct, slices without errors but doesn't show up in the print. Ideas?

Is this a tough question?

Hmmm, I was using the "add modifier" option, just noticed there is also a "add part" option, although the parameter fields and selections look the same. The KB article doesn't explain the difference very well.
