Some of the second references (on fab layer) for resistor THT footprints interfere with other graphical elements on fab #74

Some oft he references need to either be scaled down or moved a bit.
Preferably done with the original generator scripts.
But can also be done by hand. (Only a few components are affected.)

Script can be found here: https://github.com/pointhi/kicad-footprint-generator

Looking at this now. Unfortunately http://kicad-pcb.org/libraries/klc/F5.2/ hasn't really considered the axial vertical THT resistor... So the text goes outside like diodes. Should work OK.

Having a bit of trouble - keeping this on pause for the moment.
Does anyone (maybe @pointhi, @poeschlr ?) know what the best practice is for the "Fields" in the footprint properties; i.e. "Doc" and "Keywords"? Seeing some differences between what's currently in the footprints and the output of the script and looks like I'm mucking it all up. :)
F9.1 is not particularly specific.
