extruding raised or recessed text

extruding raised or recessed text

(OP)
I have searched in Inventor Help and haven't been able to find how to do this.  Is it possible to create raised or recessed text on a part preferably with a choice of font?  Or is there an alphabet somewhere that I can download and scale width and height for my particular need?

Thanks in advance.

RE: extruding raised or recessed text

dp2003,
The command that you are looking for is Emboss.  You need to create a sketch and place the text in the sketch mode. After you return from the sketch you can hit the emboss button.
