It's called Elefont and is free

I second that, Elefont is THE best solution! AS

Yeah Elefont is really easy to use, but it only exports dxf files which Bryce will import anyways. It will recognise any TrueType font, including Wingdings and Webdings which can be used to make some interesting architectural details. Wings3D and Amapi 4.1 also will make 3D text and are full modeling programs, and they are free as well. If you are interested in those programs just go to the Modeling Forum and follow the links posted there.

"Reinstall Windows" is NOT a troubleshooting step.

Elefont rocks man....

If you get Elefont, be sure to pick up its sister program, Spiralizer, also free.

If you want 3d programs of all types, I just put up a text file of links to about 60 or so programs..in the Modelling forum (bryce links are a few threads up..in this one..;) more to come.

I use Rhino for all my modeling needs, previously I used Ray Dream Studio, which is probably like $20 now, to do text. Both work wonderfully! Just some alternatives, Elefont is free, no reason not to use it!
