I'm gessing that this is with XSL-FO and variable-width fonts...

My first thought here is to have a background image with all dots,
but I'm not sure that will work.  And you've already thought of it.

Perhaps you could expand in more detail on the requiirements, in
case there's some other approach that will work?

You could also try asking on the xsl-fo
