In $[officename] Impress, right-click the border of the text object, and then choose Convert - To Curve. If your text contains more than one character, the converted text becomes a grouped object. Double-click the group to edit individual objects. Press Esc when finished. Now, click the Points icon on the Drawing bar. Click the object. You can see all the Bézier points of the object. On the Edit Points bar, you can find various icons for editing, inserting and deleting points.
