You have Smart Spaces enabled ... this is how I want to use FrameMaker. This is how I avoid extra spaces between words.
You can disable this setting and then add extra spaces ... but that is not necessarily what you may want! Also, to insert extra spaces when you still have Smart Spaces enabled, you can insert special fixed-width spaces using key characters - try "ESC space m" for example . This is described in the documentation ...

It's great except for one quirk: The spacebar doesn't always create a space. Across all paragraph tags, hitting the spacebar does not create a space in the text at the cursor. If I place the cursor at the end of a word, and hit the spacebar, I'm simply moved to the next word but a space has not been created. If I place the cursor in the middle of a word and hit the spacebar, one space is created (creating two words), but additional taps on the spacebar do nothing. However, if I open a new FM document without importing the character tags from the new template, my spacebar works as it should within the default paragraph tags. Does anyone have any ideas? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
