How do you do "inner glow to CSS", "text-gradient to CSS" and "pseudo-semibold to CSS"?

Question

css

I'm talking to layout designers.
I didn't break it down into separate questions:
1) How do you style if the designer applied the "inner glow" effect in the layout on the element? Manually pick box-shadow or there is a generator like this http://melaniededon.com/psd-to-css3/. That is, I don’t have a problem with shadows, it infuriates me when they make an “inner glow” for some reason.
2) Also annoying when the text is given a gradient. How do you solve this problem?
3) And the question that especially torments me is: how to draw a pseudo-bold typeface, which many designers love so much, using CSS. For those who don't understand what I'm talking about: in Photoshop, in the properties of the text layer, next to the option to underline the text, there is an option to make it pseudo-bold.
Of course, I looked for a solution on the Internet, otherwise I would not have asked here. I have not been able to find a definitive answer to these questions.
Thank you all in advance and plus in karma.

Answer 1

Such designers need to tear out their hands with roots.

Answer 2

http://csshat.com/ you select a layer with effects in photoshop, and this plugin generates css3 code for box-shadow, gradients and a bunch of other things.

Answer 3

inner glow

did with ie8 support by overlaying an additional translucent layer (in my case there was a gradient, but if the element's dimensions are fixed, then you can also use a picture)

Also annoying when the text is done with a gradient.

Depending on the gradient, either I explain why I can’t do it, or I make it with a picture, if this is permissible in a particular case.
Luckily I didn't run into the latter.

Answer 4

For js gradients, for example , labs.dragoninteractive.com/rainbows_demo.php or www.artlebedev.ru/tools/technogrette/js/gradient-text
beat the designer.
