Try the command : TXT2MTXT but I'm affraid it doesn't exist on your LT ( to be confirmed ).
On my 2008 release I find it in the express menu ( not existing on the light releases ).
If it doen't work, you will have to copy/paste your texts from text to an Mtext.

You cannot run a lisp routine in AutoCAD LT. Try finding a diesel macro that will do the same thing. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

First load the express menu by typing the command "expresstools". Then from the text menu you'll find convert tect to MTEXT. |

foot: The guy is using AutoCAD LT. There is no Express Tools in that version of AutoCAD only in the full version.
