IMO the easiest way to bevel the text is to export text to a modeller
and bevel it there (IIRC there way a simple modeller called "VSPOV" or
similar which could take in a 2D DXF object - as produced by Corel
Draw exporting text - raise it into 3D and bevel it).
However, what you're left with is meshes rather than true text...
