It looks like you’re machining the curves separately??
And you’re not using the clearing bit?

Select the text & the box together, and check the clearing bit.

I tried doing that, but unfortunately the result is the is the same
as you see in the picture

I tried with your settings (pic below) the only thing i saw difference is my settings showed 3 vectors for some reason
I really appreciate your help!!!
Thank you


If the text is actual text, there should only be 2 vectors.
select the text & move it to see if there’s a duplicate underneath. Use CTRL-Z to undo the move.
Do the same with the rectangle.

looks like that was the problem!
I didn’t see duplicate text, so I deleted
and redid the text and it worked great!
Thanks again for your help !
