This program is a simple and fast text displayer. Inside you find a handmade font, that gives the option to be resized to any size you want and to any depth/height you want. I tried to create a font that has a minimum of polygons but still is good readable. The only problem is that Openscad can't handle strings, so text have to be placed letter by letter.

I used this polygon generator program (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:9290) to create the letters very quickly.

Place the .SCAD file in your working directory. In your Openscad document type:

use #text.scad# (replace # with < and > ) text("a", 10, 5);

Where the first parameter is the text (between quotes); The second parameter is the size of the letter; The third parameter is the depth/height of the letter.

Or simply open the text.scad file and run it.
