And if I'd read more closely, I'd have seen you knew how to do thin space. I believe those are the only "special" spaces available, though, so if thin space isn't what you want, you might try numeric. I don't recall ever seeing one that was "the width of punctuation", and I doubt if there is one, since how much space a mark of punctuation takes up depends on the mark in proportional spacing. For example, a "?" will take up more room than a "!".
If thin space isn't what you want, try the numeric. Beyond that, I got nothing. :) On Mon, Jul 1, 2013 at 1:55 PM, Lin Sims <ljsims.ml at gmail.com> wrote: > Number space: Esc+<space>+1 > Em space: Esc+<space>+m > En space: Esc+<space>+n > Thin space: Esc+<space>+t > > You probably want thin space. > > On Mon, Jul 1, 2013 at 1:25 PM, Christenson, Pat < > PChristenson at ftportfolios.com> wrote: > >> Thanks for pointing me to bookvars.**** >> >> ** ** >> >> Now a new question: I thought there was a way to insert a space that?s >> the width of punctuation, such as a period or comma (similar to Esc >> spacebar m for em space, Esc spacebar t for thin space, etc.).
