Custom Linetype stumping me

Im trying to make a linetype that is hidden with text in it. Is that possible? Ive got all my linetypes customized with text, but trying to make them on a hidden linetype is tricking me. Any thoughts?

The line def must begin with a pen down assignment. I don't think you will get exactly what  you want but perhaps if you use something like the tiny dot linetype with a large gap before and after a very small pen down assignment you can get a dot that can be hidden in the text...perhaps you can even offset the text to help hide the dot.
