[reportlab-users] pdfgen and dotted lines

Hi all,

I am fairly new to using pdfgen but quickly gaining experience. I am
currently creating a document that requires the use of dotted lines that
connect to bodies of text. This is exactly like using a word processor and
custom tab stops with trailing periods. If that does not make sense then a
quick example:

Some text goes
here.......................................................................followed
by the trailing dot.
Text
1......................................................................................................
this is right aligned.
Different widths should be
handled.............................................................................correctly.

Is that possible? I was doing it before by drawing directly on the canvas,
however, I think using flowables is a better design and way more
maintainable in the long run. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Abe
