Attached Link: Tink's Cafe - 3D text extrusion done in Elefont

I love ***Elefont***!  It creates a mesh in *.dxf* format.  Poser often chokes on that, so if you have a modeler, convert it to an *.obj* before importing to Poser.  Also, you'll sometimes get these "icicles" protruding from the mesh, as seen in the screenshot of the Elefont UI.  A modeler can nudge such outlying vertices back into position. Elefont gives options for chamfering the edges;  a nice touch. This gallery image linked above shows an Elefont extrusion, using Windows' included *Harlow* font, and setting Elefont to produce rounded edges.

Poser 12, in feet.
