>> did you have any luck with the "pea-green/powdery-brown blotchy look << Tim, I tried the material on a cylinder and it looked the same in the scene as in the ME. Maybe you had forgotten to do a Materials/Update at some point? Are you creating the text in the 2DShaper, then lofting it? If so, not having the start and end cap buttons on would give you only the edges in the 3DEditor. But, the fact that it renders in Acad might indicate that the faces are just flipped. Try selecting the top text faces in the front or left view and doing a Surface/Face Flip/Selected or rendering with the two sided button on in the render dialog box. I got the file and will have a look at it today or on Sunday. Enjoy the spring weekend! (Where do you live, Tim?) TedB -Ted Boardman !^NavFont01F000FMGJHG3EMG40HI661C1F
