[reportlab-users] Width of Preformatted?

I'm doing something like this:
text = \
"""THE BUSINESS NAME
31 SOME ADDRESS
DENVER, CO 12345
501-123-4567"""
styles = getSampleStyleSheet()
style = styles['Normal']
cell = Preformatted(text, style)
I need to get the actual width that will be taken up by that paragraph. But
when I do:
w,h = cell.wrap(1, 1,)
It gives me something like 1,48. The second number is reasonable for the
height, but why the bogus number for width?
But if I try to do cell.minWidth() it says there's no such animal.
How can I get the width of a Preformatted object?
Thanks,
Michael
