Putting more on the page: bulking out the story (7)
I believe the answer is:
padding
'story' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for padding that I've seen is " Soft stuffing".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
