custom symbol text

I am creating a custom symbol for a schematic. I want the terminal numbersto line up horizontally, is there a way to do this in wildfire 2. Right now i just drag them until they are almost lined up.
 
You might be better off doing it in AutoCAD and importing a DXF into Pro/E if you want everything exactly aligned. Hate to say it but it's true.
 
If I create a symbol and need to know the size, alignement and so on, I create a part and sketch datum curves. Then I place the part on a drawing with scale 1:1. Finally you "snapshot" the view (in WF2: --> Edit --> Convert to draft entities). Later, in the symbol definition, I use the "Copy Drawing" option available in the 'Menu Manager'. This works perfectly!
