What Austin said, Jules.
If you don't have a lot of text, it might be easiest to put each letter in
its own textbox and use the Distribute tools (Draw/Align and Distribute) to
place them equal distance apart. Place the upper- and lower- (or right- and
left-) most objects and then select all the objects you want to distribute.
Then hit Draw/Align and Distribute, distribute horizontally and then
distribute vertically.
