Vertical travel text option

When creating text in 3d viewport, I wanted to create neon light billboard for asian text where they travel vertically. The overflow option does do the trick until you try having multiple text lines of paragraphs.

I like your idea, but so far there is no such possibility, I would suggest using Geometry nodes. You create a string output socket from the output of the Geometry nodes group, connect the string socket to the String to Curve node and adjust the Character Spacing, then you connect the Curve Instances socket to the Instances socket from the Rotate instances node, set the Z-axis rotation to -90 degrees so that the checkbox "Local Space" is disabled and the last one connects the output socket from the Rotate Instances node to the Instances socket from the second Rotate Instance node, but with the "Local Space" checkbox enabled and with a 90-degree rotation angle along the Z axis, not -90, but a positive 90-degree angle. After that, you will get the desired result.
