Subtract Front adds superfluous line

[ChrisRrrrr]

When I subtract front (after converting text to outlines, expanding the outlines, working strictly with vector shapes), I have been running into a situation where Illustrator is adding in these extra colored areas, that I am at a loss as to figure out how to eliminate them.

The left image is before subtract front has been applied. Right image is after.

Any ideas?

Try View > Preview on CPU

That appears to have eliminated the additional fill.

Thank you!

• As Monika said - mostly it's only a problem of the GPU view. Toggle with [Strg/Ctrl]+[E]
• And sometimes it helps to use menu: Object --> Path --> Simplify (with 100%)

Preview did it, also tried the Simplify method, also worked, although it did change the art a little (as that function was designed to do).

Appreciate it.
