How do i wrap text around a 3d cylinder v81

Please confirm the Product and Version being used

One method may be to Extrude the Text and then use the Compute Intersection tool 

Another may be to create a Material of the required Text and then apply the Material to the Cylinders Surface, 

Hi Mark,

Materials are created within Palettes via the Material Editor dialog, in V8i this can be launched, from the Visualization Task
