For examples see:
Parametric Name Tag:

Parametric Alphabet Block:
thingiverse.com/thing:2056
OpenSCAD Height Map:
thingiverse.com/thing:2070
Include bitmap.scad:
Create the letter "A" where each bit is a 2mm cube (8 x 8 so 16mm total wide) and 5mm high:
block_size = 2;
height = 5;
8bit_char("A", 2, 5);
Create the string "MakerBot". OpenSCAD has no real string or length methods :( so you have to define each character in an array and pass the number of characters:
chars = ["M","a","k","e","r","B","o","t"];
char_count = 8;
8bit_str(chars, char_count, block_size, height);
