Daniel, here a piece of code goes:
------------------
float x = 0f;
float y = 0f;
float z = 0f;
int fontSize = 15;
double X1 = 0;
double Y1 = 0;
double X2 = 4;
double Y2 = 0;
//=============================================================//
Shape extrusionShape = new Line2D.Double(X1, Y1, X2, Y2);
Font3D font3D = new Font3D(
new Font("TimesNewRoman", Font.ITALIC | Font.BOLD, fontSize),
new FontExtrusion(extrusionShape));
Text3D text3D = new Text3D(font3D, text, new Point3f(x, y, z));
----------------
And everything works just fine. Text3D is a geometry instance, so that u
can create Shape3D later. But the big question is whether i can set some
texture on this 3D text (via Appearance), so that it wouldn't be shown
just in some color? I tried but got some rendering error, as far as i
remember.

OpenGL32.DLL if anything but the default FontExtrusion() constructor is
used. The default constructor merely creates text
that is 0.2 unit deep, has anyone succeeded in modifying this in any
way?

CubicCurve, Line2D and Rectangle2D (all as simple Monotonic).
