[docbook-apps] TOC numbers are not lining up correctly


Greetings all,

Yes, its me with yet another question! I have just converted a large document (several hundred pages, instead of the 10 or so I've been using as DocBook test cases) into a DocBook format. Everything is working fine, with one exception: when I generate a PDF, the TOC numbers are not aligned correctly.

I suspect that there is a parameter that sets how much space exists between a TOC entry and its corresponding page number. But I have looked in the DocBook XSL: The Definitive Guide, as well as several of the parameter reference pages, and I am having trouble locating what parameter/template I need to change. Of course, this lack of alignment might be caused by something else entirely.

For clarification, the output I'm getting is this:

Section..........1
   Section2......2
   Section3.......3
   Section4......4

Again, I think the length of the toc entry title has something to do with this, but I'm not sure what to change. If it matters, I'm using FOP to convert to PDF (I don't _think_ this is a FOP issue, but I could be wrong)

Thanks in advance for any assistance,
