The Red "S" will actually be Black ASA and the white "S" will be Red ASA. I am remaking a sign for our fire department and this part is getting me irritated. LOL. Like I mentioned before, Cura STL files and my printer do not work well with each other. The OBJ files are wonderful though. Yes I remerged everything. Preview, is that in Cura? I am not really familiar with it. I know how to use it to slice that is about it.

I am trying to 3D print the Red "S". adding a .5 bevel, expands the edges so the the White "S" will sit directly on top of it. I had to ungroup it so that the settings would appear on the right hand side showing my bevel setting.
This is what I want it to be when I am done.

... without seeing the "problem" makes is almost impossible to give advice... No screenshots? You could attach your project-file (3MF) so we can take a look at it!
I do not have the ability to do #MF in Tinkercad. I can export to OBJ, GLIF, STL, and SVG. Is that something I can do in Cura? Won't really be able to show the original design that way though? Suggestions?

I have been 3D printing for a year now and have used Tinkercad for a lot of my projects. I am using Cura to slice projects for my Ender 3 Pro. For the most part it does very well. Cura does not seem to want to slice thing well in a STL format. It does far better as an OBJ creator. Now with that being said, I am running into a new issue that I am playing around with. Bevels on projects. Cura is not slicing them and only printing the main project. I am losing my mind trying to figure this one out. Tinkercad shows my project with a .5 bevel on my text that I am wanting, but cura is not slicing it that way. It only prints the basic text without the bevels. Any idea on what I am doing wrong?
Bevels in Tinkercad are not printing
in UltiMaker Cura

Thank you Greg. That was it It was getting lost in the layer height. I can see that it was about a layer and half tall so it was there but with the overall height of my piece only being 3mm it was there just hard to tell. Thank you again.
