    Hi, 

    In certain situations, I have text or html which begins and/or ends with a space. For instance:

    $text = " and a previous sentence continues ";

    $html " and a <i>previous</i> sentence continues ";

    In using $docx->addText($text) the resulting docx include all spaces in the $text variable. Excellent.

    In using $docx->embedHTML($html) then the first and last spaces (i.e. the " " before "and", the " " after "continues") are stripped. 

    I have tried to replace any first or last space with &ensp; but that does not seem to correspond to ordinary spaces in the resulting docx. The &ensp; is larger than and ordinary space and does not show as a "dot" when i display formatting marks in Word/libreoffice.

     

    Any idea?

    Best regards,

    B
