Hello *,
I'm quite new here, I've been using LaTeX and XeTeX for a while but I'm no
expert. I use texlive 2011 for linux/i386. I'm trying to obtain horizontal
alignment of some words. Let's make an example (look at the following with a
monospaced font):
TITLE1 WORD1
text in a minipage environment
that spans exactly
three rows
TITLE2 WORD2
text in a minipage environment
that spans exactly
three rows
WORD3
text in a minipage environment
that spans exactly
three rows
and so on...
Please note that the xetex code is being automatically generated and for this
reason I need three distinct commands, one for the titles, one for the
horizontally aligned words and one for the horizontally aligned minipages. In
the attached xetex source the three commands are: \sessoentry, \classeentry
and \dogentrytrerighe (sorry for the mixup of italian and english word in the
command names, but those are legacy names). In those commands I'm using
\makebox[0pt] to make WORD1 and WORD2 alignment independent of the TITLEs on
the left, but that does not seem to completely work: WORD1 and WORD2 are a few
millimeters off their expected position.
I've tried \tabto, but it strangely makes the minipage slide up a bit and
overlap WORDx.
Any suggestion welcome, thanks in advance.
Lucio.
