Can someone have a look at this model and work out why the text doesn’t show when sliced.
Thanks in advance.

It stick up less than the layer heigh, if you swap to 0.08 layer height, or raise it up a bit, it will print the text.
Since the print otherwise is a block of black on that side, it wont print the inside colour either, as its not seen, the way the model is set up.
Thankyou for the explanation. I was originally trying to set the text as a modifier to keep the surface flat but that doesn’t work either.
My prefered way of doing it is in in cad, where I make each letter a separate body. Then its easier to get a flush surface with colour. (and to be fair, I would have printed the text face down on the plate, as that will look better)
I will try it face down. I did have it that way but spent so long trying to get the text to work that I forgot to flip it over.
Well, it wont work with that particular model, more of a advise when it comes to printing text on flat surfaces.
The problem stems from the import of the bottom image. This is a common problem when using imported images.
If you select the model and “Color Painting/Erase all painting”
It will fix the model and the text on the top will slice correctly (flush with top) other than the dashed lines which are too small for the nozzle.
The issue is that the image on the bottom is removed. Often you can split the image out before removing the painting and then just recolor it. This option isn’t available with this import.
Suggest importing the image on the bottom as a separate part and adding it to the model
