I am having a problem creating beveled text, it seems I can get most letters completed – except on certain fonts where some letters bring back a 'Beveled Shape is invalid' message in the lofter. Who can I work around this obstacle? Thanks PaulB

Paul, Another way to bevel text is to use the Shaper with Create/Outline. Use the inside outline/polygon for the top of the bevel and the outside polygon for the body of the text. You would go into the lofter and bring your different shapes onto the path, this will create real cool bevels. -Mike

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
