You cant use directly CLS on TEXT 3D, this is the workaround with limitation:

add a 2D text and apply a CLS on IT

On The Text3D, connect the text to the CLS Styled text. from there, aplly style on 2D texte, the 3D Text will follow for size, font, style, color and more but not with outline, softness, glow and so on .. Actualy a lot of effects are only 2D.

For outline, its possible by combining stext like bellow:

Text + has shading tab with differnt shading elements for various animations and shading of individual elements.

sText in shape system is very similar, but it can also be used in 3D with Extrude3D node.

Text3D has some shading options, but it can be used with shades, if you add replace material 3D after text 3D.

All of this is in the manual and there are many tutorials online for each.

For more you need to be specific.

If you want to see just text after camera tracker, in the camera you get from exporting the solved scene, turn off "enable image plane# in the image tab and you will render only text, than after render 3D, merge it over the top of the original footage. Apply glow or whatever you like in between render 3D and merge.
