Hi Dave

Which ones?
2003 and 2003? and 2007?

Craig


2000	EN QUAD
	: 2002 en space
2001	EM QUAD
	= mutton quad
	: 2003 em space
2002	EN SPACE
	= nut
	* half an em
	# 0020 space
2003	EM SPACE
	= mutton
	* nominally, a space equal to the type size in points
	* may scale by the condensation factor of a font
	# 0020 space
2004	THREE-PER-EM SPACE
	= thick space
	# 0020 space
2005	FOUR-PER-EM SPACE
	= mid space
	# 0020 space
2006	SIX-PER-EM SPACE
	* in computer typography sometimes equated to thin space
	# 0020 space
2007	FIGURE SPACE
	* space equal to tabular width of a font
	* this is equivalent to the digit width of fonts with fixed-width digits
	# <noBreak> 0020
2008	PUNCTUATION SPACE
	* space equal to narrow punctuation of a font
	# 0020 space
2009	THIN SPACE
	* a fifth of an em (or sometimes a sixth)
	# 0020 space
200A	HAIR SPACE
	* thinner than a thin space
	* in traditional typography, the thinnest space available
	# 0020 space
