Text missing portions when slicing - why?

Howdy! Hope you are all well. Hoping you can help.

I create the following simple shape with some text on in in the slicer as per below

But when I slice it it comes out like this

I printed one previously and it had part of the writing missing and I thought that something was wrong with the hardware. But when I went back in and sliced it I saw this.

Anyone know why part of the text disappears when I slice it? Any suggestions on a fix?

Thanks!

Use arcane wall generator, classic can emit fine details like this.

Thankyou. I used Arachne and yes it looks better now

The white line on the top of the heart, will that come out in the print? Not sure why that is there to be honest.

No that is just shown in the slicer to represent the seam.

im inclined to say no, the slicer only told me one filament change so seems ok.

The missing parts of the text are narrower than your line width.

The Arachne wall generator helps by varying the line width, but can cause issues with overhangs and surface artifacts. Sometimes you just have to try both wall generators and examine the results in the Preview.

Also in the Preview, with Line Type selected, uncheck the Display box for “Seams” - the white lines showing the seam at the top of the heart will disappear.
