Hi, Mark: You might be able to use the Japanese Rubi text feature in FM 8 (not sure if it's in earlier releases.)
Briefly, select the text to be underlined, then use Special > Rubi (or if Rubi isn't on the Special menu, tap and release the Esc s r keys in sequence) to activate Rubi. * Type the period to make the dotted line; it will appear above the selected text. * Select the dotted line and use Alt+DownArrow to move the Rubi line's baseline below the text. It's tricky to get this going, and very tricky to edit after you exit the Rubi box (easier to delete and redo), but you'll catch on quickly. The Rubi'd text won't wrap around line endings. I haven't tried it with FM x-refs and hyperlinks, just plain text, and I haven't texted the result of PDFs made by printing or Save As. Search for Rubi in the Help for full information.
