that is easy but also sucks at the same time. Revit needs better text tools. Looks like a wish list item haha

Well, I think all would agree that the text tools need great improvement (and yes, this IS a wish list item.) However, the main question here is about the Model Text tool, which I would consider very different than the regular text tool. This is mainly for creating a 3-dimensional text representation from a font of your choice usually for signs, etc. Could it be better? Sure, but this is waaaaaaaaaay down on the my list compared to some other items. To me, I guess this isn't that big of an issue, as in this example I could model each letter individually and then place them where I need them.

This is what I ended up diong, but to comment on sfaust's reply, you can hit enter, but then you can't control the spacing at all, so it really doesn't work.
