-**three-text** renders and formats text from TTF, OTF, and WOFF font files as 3D geometry. It uses [TeX](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeX)-based parameters for breaking text into paragraphs across multiple lines, and turns font outlines into 3D shapes on the fly. Glyph geometry is cached for low CPU overhead, especially in languages with lots of repeating glyphs. Variable fonts are supported as static instances at a given axis coordinate
