Trying to engrave text and it is awful

I have engraved text several times with excellent results. I am using text generated by GF. It is coming out with double letters.

Any chance that there’s one set pilied on top of another? What machine are you using?

Distorted engraves can indicate incorrect belt tension. Does your engraving look like this?

Most likely belt tension, as stated, but there are other things like debris on the rails or a damaged wheel on the carriage plate. Did you remove the belt for some reason?
