Yeah, it indicates that you're passing on what you heard from someone else
(which can be 「よろしくお伝えください」... or anything else) |

Daijs: 人から聞いた話であることを表す。…という。…だそう。「彼は会社をやめた―だ」 |

I notice there's another とのこと pattern: "よろしくとのこと". It's in 3 Tanaka sentences:
夫からもくれぐれもよろしくとのことです。 My husband sends his best regards to you.
彼女からよろしくとのことです。 She sent you her best wishes.
兄があなたによろしくとのことです。 My brother sends you his regards.
It's also in Eijiro:
主語からも人によろしくとのこと join in sending very best regards to
The pattern is very common ~4M hits plus 2.3M for よろしくとの事.
I suspect it means that とのこと also carries a sense of "I'm passing on a message". |

It should be there in the entry, but the "uk" tag indicates it's usually in kana.
BTW, I found quite a few examples in the Tanaka corpus, so I'll link them. |

I only included the kanji form との事 because it happened to
appear in one example I saw. I think the kanji would be rarely
used in this context, and I'm fine if you want to omit the
kanji form of the expression. |

GG5 example: 肝炎と診断されたが幸い軽症とのことだ． I was diagnosed as having hepatitis, but fortunately it's a mild case, I'm told. |

Comments: |
Most of the examples I could find were in kana - neither GG5 nor Eijiro has any with 事. (とのこと will play merry hell with WWWJDIC's text glossing.) |
