Symbol Type True Type Question

[Steve Lime]

For labels yes, you can set the buffer value to n pixels and that will make sure no labels are closer than that value. For symbols, no there is no way to pad them, not sure why you'd want to, although I guess it depends on what you mean by pad. The exception is for annotation layers. In that case any accompanying marker is considered part of the label and is used in any buffer computation.

You can stack symbols using styles and can create outlines and such that way.

Is there a way to draw padding around letters, or any symbol for that matter?
