This is not something that Asciidoctor PDF supports out of the box.

The brute force way is to add the dots manually using some trial and error.

If you patched the converter, you could add logic that builds on what Asciidoctor PDF does for the table of contents. It's a little tricky, though.

See https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-pdf/blob/4bd554da7c9aea4427f0b4a02ede857c96109170/lib/asciidoctor-pdf/converter.rb#L2458-L2469

I'd like to display in a table some text then a dotted line then some more text on the same line.

Name....................................................test

I want the "Name" to be left justified against the left border and "test" to be right justified against the right border and then to be able to fill the gap between the two with repeating dots.

It this possible with asciidoc-pdf?
