With all of Swift 3D's 3D-to-Flash abilities, you do not see many uses of the ultimate cool effect: three dimensional text. Why do you not see many examples of animated 3D text? The primary reason is file size. The word "kirupa" rendered in Swift 3D can easily take up about 50k-60k in simple Arial font. Text, unlike shapes, has far more detailed lines, curves, and edges that need to be converted to the Flash format.
