Use \hline{<size>}.

This question was already available into the group history.

Hi,

I guess that one of  the best command to put a line of any size is the \rule.
You can control the length the position and the thickness of the line.

Put the code below in a latex file and test it to see what happens. Then change the numbers and ...

Text\rule[-0.1cm]{5cm}{0.01cm} Text\rule[-0.1cm]{3cm}{0.01cm}

Regards

Ariovaldo
