Need Help with Pockets on tapered shaft

Can someone tell me the best way to go about machining out the letters in this part
Anyhow even though the simulation didn't look all that great, I decided to go ahead and try it.
This is what I got. Why are the letters mirrored and what tool or settings do I use to get decent cuts.
I tried using the 4th axis projection pocketing and carefully selecting each and every vector at the bottom of the letters.(very time consuming) Initially it would not do the 2 so I had to go back to the other cad system and make the text a few thou bigger, re import it and start over.
