Hi All

 

Using the following;

 

Win 10 PC,

Cura 5.2.1,

Matter Control to create object.

 

I am trying to create a sign with a front and back face.  The text is a copy of the other, copy & paste, so it has the same font, spacing and size configuration.  The bottom side the text is mirrored and the top side normal.  When I slice the project as you can see in the pictures attached the bottom side text has some extra lines (in light blue) within the embossed/subtracted area.  This is not seen in the top side text?

 

I am new to printing so the error that was displayed doesn't mean much to me in fixing the problem.

 

I have attached a copy of my STL file, top side, bottom and closeup of bottom side, any comments greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks all.

    The blue lines here a brim lines. This happens because these letters have an "island" inside them, and Cura gets a little confused about what is the inside and what is the outside of the first layer.

     

    Since this print is very round, you could try printing it with a skirt instead of a brim.
