We now need to create a tool path to fill in the highlighted area. Select Tool Path Tools form the left
toolbar. Then select the Fill tool.
The Fill window will appear. Since we are going to use a 1/16th inch End Mill to engrave out the
background, select the 1/16" End Mill as the Tool, set the Depth to 0.150 inches. Choose Red as the
Color and set the Fill Style as Spiral and the Fill overlap to 15 percent. Lastly, set the gap to -0.010
inches. Using a negative Gap will allow the cutter to slightly reduce the size of the characters and
increase detail in sections where these is not enough room for the tool to move through.
