Wierd fill in TEXT after exploding

[SD&PC]

Hi, so my company uses laser etching so we constantly have to explode TEXT so the laser can read it. Since installing AutoCAD '11 I seem to be having a problem. When I explode the TEXT it creates small lines within individual letters which almost resemble a sloppy fill pattern. This lines are throwing our laser out of whack....About 2 months ago I read of others having this problem their solution was to export the files into multiple programs how ever our time constraints are so tight that we need to keep our engineering in one program....anybody have a clue whats going on with this TEXT explode?

What txt style are you using? can you post a sample for us to investigate?

Could you provide us with an image of one letter or word that was exploded where you are encountering this type of problem?

Does it look anything like this example of Times Roman text that I exploded?
Original is on the left. Exploded text in center. Exploded text separated into its individual entities on the right.

It seems that multiline fonts develop this effect. Times New Roman, Standard, etc. There is a LISP out there that can do this, im sure

ok I posted the file as an attachment if you zoom in on the letter "i" you will see the wierd lines I had previously mentioned. This only happens sometimes as you can see the D is fine but the N has the same issue on a smaller scale

EDIT: Jplanera that is a pretty cool find however the normal extra crosses do not both the laser its the redundant lines that I posted that bothers it. Not only that it will do to many passes taking off to much and allowing light to leak from the panel which is no good.
