Text onto cylinder

Hi all,

A long while ago I'm sure someone posted a method of projecting text drawn on a reference plane onto a cylinder so it can be extruded. I'm damned if I can find the thread now or the sites the thread pointed to. I am trying (SW2004-SP4) to extrude text on the body of a cylindrical tank (the manufacturer's name).

can anybody help here?

Many thanks, Regards, Jeff.
