What exactly are you doing? You haven't said. Are you simply trying to add text to a menu background, add text to a timeline or what?

Please give us the step by step process (including key presses) you use to get this problem.

I've never had any problems adding text to a menu composition. Then again I've never tried adding pages of it either.

Also, letting us know what version of Encore you are using might help as well.

I've said this so many times lately. Details details details.
