We display a document on the web. Everything fine but the embedded spaces. The formatting looks fine in Notes but the web removes the embedded spaces. How do i fix this?

As Doug said above, it is a limitation of HTML.
You can use an HTML non-breaking space, if you need more (but it can get a little ‘funny’, and begin to look unattractive).
A non-breaking space would look like this " " (without the quotes). You could place this/these as Pass-Thru HTML and use Hide-Whens to keep it from showing in Notes clients.

You can place your text between
…tags, and the whitespace will be preserved.

Thanks guys!
I used the tables to fix the issue.

That’s a limitation of HTML. Basically, redundant spaces are suppressed in HTML. Anything like two spaces, a series of carriage returns, etc. are all compressed to one space. There also is no concept of tabs. Tables are sometimes used to effect certain alignment/spacing issues. CSS can help some things. What specifically is the issue you are seeing.

I get an interesting variant. I have two documents, one of which compresses the spaces and one which doesn’t. Both are in Courier New 10pt font in the original. I have put no HTML tags in the original document and otherwise seem identical.
The HTML rendering on the uncompressed one use TT tags and non-breaking spaces, where the compressed one doesn’t.
Here are the two document examples:
Any ideas? I have no idea how this is happening.
