    Maybe I'm not understanding your question, but have you tried just holding on the box with text in it and pull it smaller.

    Maybe I do not understand what you want, but, just change the depth until the text disappears and then come up 1/16. Something like 0.23 ?

    The text "Coffee" is at about a .25 high off the board it's chipping away parts of the lettering I need to get the text not as high so it won't chip away the lettering. thanks

    Or add draft and reduce height.

    At 0.35 the text vanishes. I thought 0.25 was nice. (And that is depth not height)

    View - Toolbars - check Carving List.

    Set the merge to "Normal" on the object that the text is on. Then set the text to merge "additive". Then try different height and depth settings on the text.
