There is a small number of whatever you want to name it. The look like named characters, but will be printed not always, or not at all.
Thin space:
d D
->d D
Emphasized space:
d D
-> d D
Normal space: /d D/ -> d D
No break space:
A spaces at wich the line is not allowed to be broken. Two words separated by
a nbsp
tag will be treated by parser and mapper to be a single long one.
Suggest Hyphen:
If the mapper is up to break a word, with has the shy
tag inside, it will
probably do the wordbreak at the place of the shy
tag and place a
hyphen instead. If no wordbreak is necessary the shy
expands to
nothging at all.
