osgText currently only supports positioning of text along a straight
line.  There is an experimental TextNode replacement for osgText the
is written to allow one to customize the placement of each individual
glyph so this would probably be the best bet for you to look at.  Have
a look for Jeremy Moles TextNode submission in the osg-submissions
archive.
