Fill does not stay within the vector and prints as shown, what am I doing wrong?

The white fill does not stay within the vector and prints as shown.

I created a logo and discovered on review of a packaging file that the curve was flattened out at the start of the curve. Upon inspection, I discovered that the color goes beyond the vector line both inside and outside as shown on attached image. I have never had this happen before, please let me know how to avoid and how to fix.  

Best regards, Soren

Hardware accelerated Previews = GPU rendering

You can either turn it off by View > Preview on CPU from time to time just to check

Or turn off the GPU completely in the preferences. Which might slow down your work.

This is simply a display precision issue. Start by turning off hardware accelerated previews. The software based version is more exact. Otherwise consider subdividing the path to "stabilize" it and improve curve approximation.
