curved text....?

I realize this has been discussed but.....
aside from a sheet metal part (mike j wilson) can you put text in on a
cylindrical surface as a string of text not individual letters? like you
would in a molded part...made in usa, part number, date code, etc. the text
needs to be truely cylindrical and with the ability to draft it for the mold
etc. thanks.

Depending on "how curved" it is you can use one of two methods:
- offset from surface extrusion - new sw2004 "wrap" feature
