This article is about an older version of DF.

The process of engraving smoothed walls and floors increases their value further, and gives them a quality level. Engravings made with a quality of well-crafted and higher will usually be in reference to previous events.

Process

You cannot engrave surfaces that are constructed or not smooth. So before you can engrave anything, you need to make sure the Template:L(s) have finished Template:L it. After that is complete, one may designate it to be engraved (d->e).

Recommendations

As the process of engraving gives the surface a quality level, it is suggested that you utilize legendary engravers when possible to maximize the value of a room- except when you are creating rooms for a Template:L that will be affected by the Template:L when it comes into effect, as more valuable rooms are more difficult for them to pay for, and engraving everything may result in dwarves getting evicted from their homes.
