Im trying to mark some metal (alumamark tags) (which are amazing by the way) and Im running into one small annoyance. Using coreldraw and corellaser, on stock board, I cant seem to fill in lines or text. Any text that is somewhat large, or lines that are thick, it just ‘cuts’ the perimeter. I need to be able to fill these. Any recommendations?

@Bob_Damato you have to use the engrave function to fill areas.
I was afraid of that. Thank you
Actually, another trick you could use that is faster than using the Engrave function (& may just well work for your purposes) is to turn your shapes into a series of lines, spaced apart about 0.5mm. Then instead of cutting the perimeter of the shapes, it will cut a ton of lines. Have a look on my profile (back a fair way) for examples of me testing a “mock-engrave” with the CorelLaser software.
And if you defocus it (by dropping the bed a mm or 2) you’ll get a wider beam so it “cuts” a thicker line.
Thank you Guys.
@Yuusuf_Sallahuddin_Y I spent the last 45 minutes looking but no luck. But I must say youve been having a lot of fun with yours!! 
@Bob_Damato I will find it & link for you then. It is probably buried a long way back in my history haha.
@Bob_Damato Here is the “mock-engrave” or “vector engrave” that I was testing with the stock hardware/software in the past: https://plus.google.com/+YuusufSallahuddinYSCreations/posts/3sky7g1fUZD
