Select the dimension

In Properties > Text override, enter typ

You can also type "ed" and then select your dim and edit it there and if you want the text under the dim use this..

(orig dim)\X_your text

(_ = a space)

set the fits of your dim...related to your limits

 

HassanCAD: Your answer does not apply to this situation.

 

Another option is to add the text \XTYP after the brackets . This will result in the letters TYP appearing below the dimension. It comes in handy when space is at a premium.
