Re: How do I ADD Spaces?

[Daniel Speck <dspeck@xxxxxxx>]

The solution below is accurate but the RTF backend only will act on
line-fields when they occur as the very first thing in a paragraph. An
alternate approach would be to output non-breaking spaces, e.g.,

(element TAB
    (literal "\no-break-space;\no-break-space;\no-break-space;"))
