?
"A" bigger? "arroba"? is this a company name? you asking about 3D text?

First - flash is 2D - you can only simulate 3D by making actual 3D in a 3D program then exporting as
swf/image sequence and importing into flash as 2D images.

True, it is only possible to simulate 3D in Flash. If you're not a
programmer, Swift 3D (from erain.com) seems the app of choice for designers.
If you are a programmer, certain kinds of relatively low resolution (read,
uncomplicated) models can be simulated with the ActionScript Drawing API and
other sizing and depth tricks with movie clips.

See http://www.kirupa.com and search for 3D to see what I mean. You'll
find quite a few Swift 3D tutorials, and also this:

Also, try http://www.gotoandplay.it/, click their Articles section, and
filter by 3D.

Fair warning: programming in general is difficult for many people, and
programming 3D simulations is especially hard, since it requires not only
excellent understanding of ActionScript, but also a good handle on some high
level math.
