That's what I meant. The latest thread named some issue with fine-tuning
the output and never got any follow-up.

No. It can copy the current theme, but it is not the default. Instead,
engrave-faces provides customization on how the faces should be
re-mapped. Defaults are tuned to work for usual white backgrounds, but
can be customized either using existing Emacs themes, or by hand,
mapping Emacs faces to text colors and attributes.
