Hi, I want to know how can I make Extruded Text Caracters Beveled, I can Extrude them but I want to smooth the sides to get a refined aspect... can you help?
 
use the text tool to create your text
in the modify panel add a "editable mesh"
to your stack
select the polygon subobject and select all your letters
use the extrude and bevel tools to extrude and bevel the letters
go back down the stack to the text and you can still edit it

There are many other ways to do this kind of stuff I would suggest looking at all the parametric modifiers and playing with them if you can't get the look you are after. Just remember to use the paramtric modifiers the object needs to be a mesh or a poly with some kind of thickness.

Hope this helps...good luck!
