We haven't had to deal with this issue yet. Try creating a surface on the face you would like the text on. Then use the surface instead of the model.
Or perhaps try to remove material instead of "raised add".

Very strange acting FS:
extrude 25mm-1mm:

When creating new part (Raised add). I can select and remove the opposite part:
When not adding, but removing (that is also a option for us). The FS is also acting weird and cutting on the otherside.....
I think I have to try the surface options....

I figure it out with help from: https://forum.onshape.com/discussion/1895/tutorial-how-to-create-raised-text-on-a-curved-surface
That works perfect!
