Unfortunately, I am not able to keep supporting this plugin. Download at your own risk. It is likely that the plugin is broken!
Free trial version of this plugin is available for download via this download link. It is feature-restricted but does allow you to test the basic functionality;
This plugin allows you to draw any text out of blocks easily. It supports any font installed on your device and allows you to pick whatever size you wish. It also allows you to set what material it will be made out of. On top of that the plugin comes with an intuitive way of previewing the text before actually placing it down allowing you to not worry about accidently placing text through your builds. Once placed you are able to move the text in order to position it just right.

This plugin supports all fonts installed on the device. This allows you to draw all kinds of interesting characters! No need to use just the alphabet characters, all characters are available to you with this plugin. (I personally love Kanji characters!)
This plugin allows you to set the font size meaning the plugin can enlarge text and make text smaller. This allows you to decide what text is what size. Additionally you are able to resize the text even after it was placed down!
/text help <command>
Allows you to see more information about a command.
Permission: textBuilder.help or textBuilder.* or operator.
/text info
Allows you to see what settings you have currently configured. Very handy because the plugin remembers your configurations even if the server reloads. That means you may forget what you once configured. Use this command to remind yourself.

Allows you to set what text should appear. Use '<>' to indicate a linebreak allowing you to make multi-line texts.

Permission: textBuilder.confirm or textBuilder.* or operator.
/text reject

Permission: textBuilder.confirm or textBuilder.* or operator.
Important! /text build
The most important command! (Then why is it last?!) This command is used to actually build the text. You can move to the desired location and left click. The direction you are facing determines what direction the text will be placed in.
After you placed the text you will be shown a preview. During the preview you can type in chat like so: 'x,y,z' in order to move the text. For example 10,0,0 moves the text 10 blocks to the positive x. Once you positioned the text correctly you can write 'yes' in chat to confirm or write 'no' to remove everything.
Permission: textBuilder.build or textBuilder.* or operator.
The preview is client-sided meaning there is no risk of damaging existing blocks until you write 'yes' or use /t confirm, to confirm. You can use all other commands while in preview mode!

These videos are made with an older version of the plugin. Some commands are lacking but generally everything is still the same, just better!
While in preview mode you are able to run commands like normal. However, these changes will be instantly applied to the text you are editing allowing you to see the changes in real time. This is incredibly useful if you don't know how you want your text to look beforehand but instead want to experiment.
