using text in Creo sheetmetal is a nightmare?

I sent a dxf sheetmetal part with lots of engraved text (with a font thats suitable for lasercutting of course) to our manufacturer.

They told me the text is totally messed up with lots of double lines and interrupted lines and its too much work to have it lasercut.

Also they told me that many times dxf files of sheetmetal parts made in Creo have small gaps in objects to be lasercut.

How is this possible? In Creo everything looks fine but if I open exported files in any other dxf/dwg viewer, I indeed see lots of gaps.

When I press "preview" in the Export Setup tab, I do see lots of green lines (these are double lines?) in the text, but I cant do anything with this information.

Why is extruded text messed up when exporting? What can I do about it?
