Engraving full surface with V/bit/spot

Hello,

i am trying to engrave really bold text that would require not only engraving the contour, but also the interior surface. I tough i could do a 2D pocket, but it seams Fusion will not let me create a pocket with SPOT DRILL. What would be the best work around to engrave full surface. 

 

exemple of what i want to do is :

Define your tool as a tapered end mill and use 2D pocket. Generally for clearing a pocket with an engraver the tool should have some corner/nose radius otherwise you'll likely have tooling marks. Make sure your step over is set appropriately on the Passes tab.

Thanks,

 

choosing the right step over is probably the key to have a nice engraving.
