Text Videos

I was looking for instructional videos on how to use text in Part Studio to create embossed or engraved items.  I found the following improvments link but the videos are missing.

Can these links e recovered please?

All you have to do is create a sketch then click the text feature
Should look like the letter 'A'

Then select the area 'roughly' that you want to place the text, it will be like drawing a rectangle.

Then the text box will pop up.

From there you can format the text and type it in.

Then confirm the box, and resize/and move the text where you want.

then extrude your sketch.
