Edward, As Shane suggests, placing the pedal marking in a \new Dynamics allows specific placement. Attached is an example.

What is the best way to achieve this? I have been using shorten-pair but that leaves too much space between the Ped. mark and the start of the bracket. \version "2.19.80" \relative { \set Staff.pedalSustainStyle =#'mixed \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.shorten-pair = #'(0.6 . -0.6) c'4\sustainOn c d\sustainOff\sustainOn d\sustainOff e\sustainOn e f\sustainOff f } Thanks!
