You have to create them in some CAD like system. I think you could import a vector graphic of the text and then extrude it in z direction. Then export it as stl file.

Does this actually mean labels? I would think that would be very useful. Like labels of the X and Y axis or even coordinates on the edge to get a feel of orientation.
