<p class="MsoNormal">And if I'd read more closely, I'd have seen you knew how to do thin space.<br>
<br>
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 "!".<br>
<br>
If thin space isn't what you want, try the numeric. Beyond that, I got nothing. :)<o:p></o:p></p>

You probably want thin space.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">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.). I found the Unicode for it is x2008. I’ve tried (and had other people) try this, holding down Alt and typing 2008 on the numeric keypad. We get a character that looks like a long equal sign with a vertical line through it.<o:p></o:p></p>
