Random Lines being added to engrave

I have tried engraving this design three times and, each time, one or more horizontal lines get engraved that are not in the design. Always in a different place. Any ideas what might be causing this?

Might be a corrupted file…if you want to zip the file (don’t change anything, just zip it first, ) and upload it, someone can take a look at it.

I have a hunch, testing now…

Guessing there is an open but filled path. But I’m sure @jbv is on it.

I think it has to do with the parsing of overlapping shapes. I did a Unite operation and printed it, it came out fine.
