Text Tuts?

Hi everyone. Has anyone worked with the text tool? I understand how to create text but how do I make assign it to a surface? In otherwords, I want to create dynamic text. Has anyone developed a tutorial? Thanks very much.

you might want to treat text tool as a nurbs curve. use surface>planer tool to make a letter into a surface. then you can texture it how you want.
