Not sure if there is a tutorial on this, but, text is fairly easy to work with.

Open anim8or.
press shift+A to ensure that you are in Object/Edit
Press Shift+T to create text.

click in the workspace wherever you wanna start your text.
type your text.
click the arrow (select tool)

go to the build menu and click "extrude"... click OK.

You now have some 3d text...
experiment with that first then move on to other items like...

after typing your text and then selecting the arrow tool, double click the text and edit the font (...)

experiment with the extrude settings.
Hope this helps
