How to dilplay a text on screen?

Here's what I need: there's a set of experiments the player does and the user has to get the number results of them. I don't know how to show numbers on screen, I was wondering abou *.ifl but seams that you cant get a specific image of a list - I don't know how to solve it, can u help me?!

Please specify _where_ you want those numbers to appear. Over the players head? On some shape in the game or in the GUI of the game itself (playgui)?

Ok, I want those numbers to apear in some display, like a tv. This tv would be a .dts I think. Let me explain more likely: it's an educational phisics software using some math - so, the player should be able to use some items to get some goals. To aproach this goals, the player must see the numbers he's getting, if they're correct or not. I can imagine a few alternatives for this tv - like a ballon in gui for some while following the phisics experimet (.dts) on screen - or even a popup to bring a picture of the experiment with the results. But in fact - I prefer showing numbers thru a display in the enviroment. Any idea? what would be easier?
