i cant figure out how i do put letters on (object) hull like( NCC-1701). i use work sketchup 6.0 that i use intersect, cut and remove objects then see the lines on object then black print was works. AC3D didnt work??? i dont want copy from textures.

I actually dont understand what you mean. Maybe you can take some screenshots of your work and post here? That may make it clearer :)

If yes, it was done with extruded text, without textures.
Create a text-object and merge the letters together to get one object.
Then take it as a knife on the hull, so you get new surfaces, wich you
can recolor with a different color, may be white. Hope, that helps :)

Have a look in the manual :D Of course, for boolean operations you have to select two objects.Thats all :)
