The Blender.Text3d submodule.

Text3d Objects
==============

This module provides access to B{Font} objects in Blender.

Example::
  import Blender
  from Blender import Curve, Object, Scene, Text3d
  #
  txt = Text3d.New("MyText")  # create a new Text3d object called MyText
  cur = Scene.getCurrent()    # get current scene
  ob = Object.New('Text')     # make curve object
  ob.link(txt)                # link curve data with this object
  cur.link(ob)                # link object into scene
  ob.makeDisplayList()        # rebuild the display list for this object
  Window.RedrawAll()
