[docbook2pdf] How to generate horizontal lines in a PDF document?

[Yang SongXiang]

Hi, all,

I want to add 2 horizontal lines in my docbook, like this:

--------------------
 int i = 0;
 sample code;
--------------------

But had no idea how to do that. I googled it, only found
http://oreilly.com/catalog/docbook/book2/iso-box.html, but still don't
know how to use it, since lack of demo sample.

Can anyone provided a simple sample how to generate horizontal lines?


Thanks

You're on the wrong track. DocBook is not a presentation language. You  
only describe the semantics of your text. To fine-tune the  
presentation, you have to adapt the style sheets used for rendering.
