Text Overwrite

Does anybody know of third party software that would automatically rearrange text or point attributes to prevent overwriting.

Can you explain in detail the issue: as it is, it sounds like a drafting
problem only, user fix.

We use survey software that inserts point blocks at positions that have been surveyed. These point blocks contain attribute data, generally only the elevation of the point surveyed. If the points are too close together then the text from one overwrites the other. I was looking for a solution which would recognise the clash and move either of the point blocks (or both) so that they were legible.

We use the excellent Toolpac by Dotsoft but they don't have a tool for this.
