Hi,
how can I make a "Narrow no-break space" (NNBSP) in Pages?
A normal no-break space = option + space. But, how to make a "narrow no-break space"??
In French for example between p. and ex. ... in several languages it is often used. It is a narrow form of a no-break space with the width of a thin space. But how can I get it on Mac or in Pages??
Thank you!
I have never successfully done this but the NNBSP is a Unicode character and should be insertable from the Special Characters.
How you do that depends on which version of Pages in which OSX.

ok, I do have the latest Pages Edition (2013) - unfortunately, there are less functions than in pages before ... OS = Mavericks.
How can I use Unicode Characters here?
PS - Servus nach Österreich ;-)
... also das ist schon ärgerlich, wenn man "z. B." schreiben möchte, dann kommt da dieses schmale geschützte Leerzeichen rein, in Word gibt es einen Trick (Leerzeichen skalieren 50 %), aber in Pages geht das nicht, das ist leider sehr ungünstig. Wie könnte ich denn ein Unicode Format in Pages reinbringen?
Merci!
Gruße aus unser 40+ grad Heisse. 🙂

Pages '09 ist in deine Applications/iWork folder, ob es ist mehr bequem.

You can directly enter the Unicode text for the Narrow, non-breaking space, in Pages v5.
Click the + button and add Unicode Hex Input (this will appear on your Finder menu by the time)
option + 202F (the letters can be lower-case, makes no difference)
…ahhh, fond memories of typing all those ALT codes in Microsoft Word on PCs! 😀
Peter
Particularly thinking of you, amid the Pages v5 dirge. 😉
My head is full of useless information. Not just that generated by myself. 😀
Who can forget gems like ALT 0149 for bullets?
And all the 'shortcuts' for cutting and moving text in WordStar!
…ahhh excuse me whilst I nod off in my dotage and relive "The Good Old Days".
Peter
Thank you guys, I will try that.
@ Peter: I heard about the temperatures in Australia, wow!! Stay "cool" 😉

Not to worry, it's all just a conspiracy by those Climate Scientists! 🙂
Seems to be doing a good job of killing everything in my garden though!
Like standing in an oven door,, even after the sun goes down. 😝

I would write it without the space like this z.B. . That I do with any abbreviation.
In swedish we have m.m. for med mera. t.ex. for till expempel and so forth.
Narrow no-break space?
