Apologies if this is an incredibly basic question, however I cannot find the answer anywhere. I have a font that is ordinary style only, it can’t be bolded. Let’s say it is 0.5mm. I add a stroke of 0.2mm. The text now thins to 0.1mm given the combined width is 0.5 mm. How do I change so the text is 0.9mm, bring the 0.5mm text width?

I'm not sure I fully understand your question, but try this. If you change the paint order, the stroke won't obscure the filled area of the text.
Thanks @Paddy_CAD, that is perfect! Much appreciated :)
