Why can’t I add text to some surfaces?

I imported an stl file of a dodecahedron from grabCAD and I was able to add text to some of the sides. However, when I try to add text to the rest of the surfaces, the text ends up on the inside side of one of the surfaces that I already used. What’s gong on?

You may have to stitch the body together using the patch workspace. Can you post the file please.

Here is the file.  I know that I lost a surface somehow but the other surfaces won't work.

Well, I reuploaded the file (it was not an stl but an SLDPRT) and all the sides now work. I have no idea what I did wrong but it doesn’t matter anymore.
