I'm attempting to underline some text.

>From what I can see, PDF itself doesn't have too much to offer in the
region. InDesign and other applications seem to simply draw a line
underneath the word. Doing this is a bit of a hassle, but certainly doable
with a little work.

What I don't see is how to determine where the underline should be
positioned relative to the baseline and what the thickness should be.
Peeking around the source I saw that the PostScriptTable class has
getUnderlinePosition and getUnderlineThickness methods to which sound
promising but I can't figure out how to get there from PDTrueTypeFont.

In short, how do I draw underlines?

Thanks
