If you at the T
What causes the arrow tips in the corners of the T all other fonts have it also except the O
This an Arial font which has been switched from a Sans Sherif font which did the same thing.
From what I can see I have nothing extra switched on
The strange thing is if I increase the power the arrows go away which doesn’t work in this case. The other font did the same
I know it looks like it is kinda 3D but why both fonts when Arial is supposed to be solid. First time this happened used Arial before and no problem
Any Thoughts

You are using OFFSET FILL. There are some trade offs vs. FILL.
Increase the lines per inch -or- defocus 10% to blur the edges

As Abel already stated, that’s because you use offset fill. This fill mode is not suited for most use cases and should be reserved to specific use cases where it makes sense / where the tradeoff between speed and quality is ok. Avoid offset and flood fill where possible and use standard fill, this will give you the best results.
Offset fill tries to fill the object with lines, but depending on the width and number of lines, there will be empty spaces, where no additional line fits in. Therefore, it stays blank.

  : Yup I was using offset fill. I have used it a lot and never a problem but I guess it does catch up on you. One question though where is the defocus ?

  : Just move the head up or down a little. Then it will have a bigger spot and might close the gaps. Here is a comparison of both fill methods and why offset fill is not the best option in most cases (though it’s often faster for specific shapes). Both have the same line distance set. You have much more travel distance for normal fill, but it’s filled evenly, compared to offset fill.

Offset starts by drawing a line at the middle of the shape and then adds lines one by one to bulk out the shape. Some shapes get blank spots where the lines are not continuous. Those oddball patches are what causes the patchwork effect on large objects and the orphan spots in your text fills.

The preview button will show you approximate runs times, and there can be a huge difference between FILL and OFFSET. I highly recommend you try out all the options. My setup needs a slightly slower speed to handle the constant direction changes vs. straight line fill modes. You will be the one to decide OFFSET fill is worth using.

Note, there are some shapes the will 100% lock up the program under OFFSET… 4 LEAF CLOVER for 4-H is one of them. I have to use straight line fill for that shape.
