Hi Secondsky,

This is my version of Giulio's script in Python and should be fine with the latest Grasshopper iteration. You should have the latest Python component installed though. You can download the Python component from this link: (https://github.com/downloads/mcneel/ghpython/GhPython_0_5_1_0.zip)

Hope it helps,

Mostapha

You will also need to Run Rhino 5 for Python to work

Here's a script that gets you text outlines built in v 0.9. Should work just fine in Rhino 4.
