If you can attach your LightBurn file to a post it will help us identify the issue.

They’re not exact duplicates, so Delete Duplicates doesn’t help; it looks like it will require some tedious manual rework.

As @gilaraujo has discovered there are actually two outlines to each letter/shape. They’re not exactly the same so ‘Delete Duplicates’ doesn’t work. As mentioned you’ll need to ungroup and delete the unwanted duplicates.
Hope this helps.

Thank you all for your quick assistance. On my end I didn’t notice any lines and that’s why I didn’t think of that. But now that I’ve ungroup, at least I’m getting somewhere. Not being able to do it as well as @Marcus_Wakefield, but getting there.

I made a small mistake with the one I screen-captured above. I missed outthe horizontal bar below the word “TOP”. I’ve attached a version with the two outlines separated and placed on different layers so you can see them better.

Once again… I can’t thank you guys enough. I was able to delete the extras that were causing the issue and was able to send it to my machine.
