I have used the \hrulefill
command to create a horizontal rule, along with some other commands. In each case I have the rules extended up to the margin.
I want the rule width to be controllable, i.e. I want them to span the entire page. How can this be done? The existing help on Internet looks pretty scarce. Thanks for your help.

To get horizontal lines of any fixed length you can use the
\rule
command. To get a horizontal line spanning the whole page width you can use a\makebox
command and then a\rule
with a width equal to\paperwidth

0.4pt
"thick", by default.
