Well... you can use any acceptable font file for a text object. TTF's for
example. What might prove difficult is placing images onto the letters,
other than simply plunking them on. UV mapping isn't possible for the text
object. Although, maybe using planar, spherical, toroidal and such would be
enough. You can also place the letters in various ways.
If you are wanting to have more control of the shape of the letters
themselves then you'll need to try something else. Have a look at the Links:
