Hi jay24;
for embossing you can use drafting workbench ,Launch CATIA V5 and enter the drafting workbench... use text command from toolbar (write it ,what do you want) , then save this document as dxf after the save operation , open this document and select writing then from the pulldown menu click EDIT -> COPY...now enter the part design workbench ... create a new sketch and click EDIT->PASTE now exit from sketcher and create a pad (In Part Design Workbench)
that's all

Hi,
It works but this method is too hard with the characters like "O,G,e" which present many curved surfaces ...
For me, I used SolidWorks to import DXF and export again to IGES. With the same strings, this method gives me smaller file size.

hi,
You might wanna look for freeware like ttf2dxf, in some of them you will be able to set the sag parameter that will control the size of the file.
But in order to get very nice result the best is then to get that DXF file and rebuilt curves. I know it may be long but the result is there.
