Thanks - unfortunately for this board we are limited (for the time
being) to the installed version of gEDA/PCB.
As a result I'm looking for the "best" way to do this in pcb.
The board designer is new to pcb and so is not exactly comfortable
with manipulating the text in the pcb file yet. We're trying the
footprint approach at the moment but if there's anything better we can
give that a try.
