Hi,
I just tried Crystal Flying fonts from Crystal Graphics. It's weak compared to
3D Studio except for one item; creating beveled text is a breeze. I wish I
could export the beveled text as a DXF into 3D Studio.
Does anyone know of a program that allows you to extrude and bevel Postrcript
or True Type text and export it as a a DXF? Any advice is appreciated.

Check out TT2OBT.ZIP in DL3. It was just uploaded. Here's a description:

TT2OBT Demo ===========
This Windows 3.1 software converts TT-fonts to 3d objects including
all sorts of bevel generation. You can convert singel charaters, the whole
character-set or compose textstrings as 3d object.
The program supports following 3D-formats for output:
– Highlight Object Format
– DXF
– POV (2.0 triangle union object)
– RAW (for use with raw2pov)
This is just a demo, that means it is no shareware. The software works like
the full version, but it will not convert any vowels
