Enable 3d for the type layer

Hit control command A to select all of the layers than hit p to bring up position for all of the layers
Hit F2 to deselect all of the layers
Set the second layers z position (the last number in the position list) to 1 repeat this adding one to each sequential layer (example layer 3 would be 2, layer 4 would be 3 and so on)
Next parent all layers to the first type layer

Next create a solid control/command Y make it 2100 x 1500 and color it white
Enable 3d for this layer and hit P to bring up position set it z position to about 175 or so.
