Issue with 2.1.0

After installing, I tried slicing an item I'm currently working on which has raised lettering on the surface. 

 

Slicing gives this:

Slicing with Slic3r gives this:

And finally this is what Cura does: 

I have tried different lettering (i.e. larger, thicker, etc) within reason, and this is the best I could get from PrusaSlicer.  I have yet to try going back to the previous version of PS.  Any ideas would be appreciated.

RE: Issue with 2.1.0

Just to tick off troubleshooting boxes, have you tried turning on "Detect thin walls"? Slic3r claims to default this to true, but it seems Prusa's profiles all have this setting defaulted to false. Note the setting has a yellow indicator next to it meaning that you need to be in either Advanced or Expert modes to access it. This setting will be hidden in Simple mode.

(Interesting to note that Cura also failed, the bottom of the 4 is missing.)

Thanks ever so much, that was the answer...

 

Too Soon, just noticed that the bottom of the 4 was missing.  I guess I'll have to increase the thickness in the model.
