Starter running into issues with engraving from inkscape

Hello, I am totally new to Lightburn. Currently running the trial version. I downloaded it as the local makerspace uses it. I want to design a game, and for this I need stones laser cut. I have attached a svg created in inkscape. When I load this in in lightburn I don’t get solid letters to be engraved. All I see are the outlines. I have converted the letters to path in Inkscape, but that does not help me any further.

Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong?

Change the layer Mode to “Fill”. This may not show up visually unless you enable a Filled View Style in Window menu. Default shows this as outlines for performance reasons.

I noticed that one of the As actually has a duplicate set of shapes stacked on top which is interfering with the fill… Delete one set to fix it.

Thanks for your answer. This helps a lot!!!
