有没有办法使用 pyfpdf2 用点填充（多）单元格的剩余空间？

Question

I'm currently working on a Django project in which the client needs to print reports where remaining spaces are filled up with dots up to the end of the line dynamically . I'm using the PyFpdf2 library for PDF reports. The outputs should look like this: This is line 1.................... This is line 2....................

I am using basic cells and multicells as:

pdf = FPDF()
pdf.add_page()
pdf.set_font('Arial', '', 12)
pdf.cell(40, 8, 'This is line 1........')

Anyone can help?

Oh, I got the answer I needed. The python string methods ljust , center and rjust are just what I needed! For instance

name = 'John'
print(name.ljust(20, '.')

The outputs fills up the remaining spaces with dots like John..........
