Logo (small letters) printing
I’m trying to print a item with a logo on it (small letters) and the top seems a bit squashed (I can provide a photo). How do I get is crisp? I use PLA / 0.10 fast detail MK4S.
I hope anyone can help

It's often best to save your project file from Prusa slicer, and then Zip compress the project file, and attach the compressed file, for us to look at.
Can you increase the size of the logo? that would help.
However as a guess I would try reducing the number of perimeters to 1, may well help and try 'Classic' perimeter generator instead of 'Arachne'

What's the size of the nozzle? A smaller nozzle definitely helps. I use a 0.25mm nozzle for small stuff.

FYI
The .3mf project files are already zip files. (If you don't believe me, change the .3mf extension to .zip and try to open it with your favorite zip program. You'll see all the internal files and folders for the .3mf data structure.) So attempting to zip it again will create a larger file. If the forum doesn't like attached .3mf files, then zipping them would enable attaching, but so would changing the extension from .3mf to .zip...

The problem with changing the extension is that when people do that they don't mention they have. Then when you extract you then just have a folder structure and you have to then bloody rezip it up and change the extension afterwards to get it to load.
Just zip it again, at least that way when some poor schmuck comes along and unzips it, cause ya know it's file extension says its a ZIP file, it then goes to a normal 3mf that can be just opened. Its not like zipping it up makes THAT much difference to the size.
Of course if they just updated the forum to allow the attachment of 3mf files we wouldn't have this pita confusion of files in the first place.
