Unlike several other CAD systems, CATIA does not have a direct method for making solid features from keyed-in text. Spider007 provided the following link to a COE Forum FAQ that lists 3 methods to accomplish engraved or embossed text in a 3D part:

When asked to add this capability to CATIA, Dassault's response has been to use the Type3 program that has been written as a CAA program.
