U+2005 " " Four-Per-Em Space Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+2005 " " Four-Per-Em Space is a typographic whitespace character that occupies exactly one quarter of the width of an em space, which is traditionally equal to the point size of the current font. This space is frequently used in fine typography and typesetting to create precise, small gaps between elements such as numbers and units of measurement, or in justified text to fine tune spacing without breaking word boundaries. It is invisible in rendered text, serving solely as a width specifier, and is distinct from other spaces like the thin space or the regular word space, offering a specific measurement for professional layout and design work.
