Veyran,I recommend a book that teach how to create DVD menus — — Designing DVD Menus: How to Create Professional-Looking DVDs (Paperback)

Beside,you can add text to DVD menu using Adobe Encore,steps:
1. Open the Adobe Encore program and open the project you are working on, by going to “File," “Open," “Go to Window," and “Menu” to open the Menu editor window.
2. Select the text tool (T) in the toolbox and click directly on the Menu Editor window to make it active.
3. For the purposes of these instructions, type the name of your movie, “My Movie.” Go to “Edit," and then “Select All."
4. Go to “Window," and then “Character” to make the text character palette active. In the window that opens, you can here choose your font type and size. You can also change the color of the text, by clicking on the color box in the upper-left hand corner. Save your work.
