Hi! Currently, Emboss -> Wrap is limited to analytical faces like cylinder, cone, and plane. I don't think it works on the faces shown in the document. There is a workflow creating geometry close to wrap but not 100% wrap. Here is how you can do it.

 

1) Create Thicken/Offset surfaces based on the intended wrapping faces.

2) Extrude the text profile to join the part body.

3) Use Sculpt ro Split command and select the surface created in step1 to remove the unwanted text portion.

 

The resultant text geometry should look the same if you look at the text sketch. This is not wrapping. But, at least it gets the text embossed on the faces.

Thanks!

This is sort of what Mr. Shiue is talking about.  I did it slightly differently - I used BETWEEN in my extrusion, with one extent being the surface and the other extent being the face of the part.  Even that's a little complicated - I could have just done an extrude TO the surface, due to where I made my sketch.
