The "Convert to Path" menu option (control + shift + C) will convert the selected object from a "special type" (such as rectangle, ellipse, or in your case, text) into a path. This might be what you are looking for.
After you convert text to a path, you can edit the individual nodes of each letter.
Hope this helps!
Thanks, Matthew Beckler

A simple question (I think, I hope!).
Is it possible to do/make a text to graphic transformation in Inkscape? & if so... what command does one use? (I used to use Adobe Illustrator, & the command was basically, something like 'text to bitmap' (?)).
Thanks a bunch.
Henry
P.s., I did look in the manual...
