I need to export a lot of part faces with their configuration names for etching into the faces.

So - quick question. In a part sketch I can create text which automatically gets outlined. This makes sense for using sketch text for cutting into parts but this isn't useful for my present needs.  Is there any way to create text in a sketch that is not outlined?

OR is there any way to export a DXF face of a part that includes notes in the dxf export?

Thanks!
