Hi guys sorry about the long delay. Thanks for the reply!
I saw a coworker of mine use <em> and they seemed to think it would create an emspace so I followed suit haha!
Anyways, neither solution seemed to work in my case. the problem could lie in the fact that I needed these emspaces in a chinese font, and the unicode value nor the html value seemed to produce the proper result.
In light of this however the solution seemed to be to enter the emdashes and apply a white character style to them. Dreamweaver and epubs accepted the white character style there, whereas when I applied it manually to the xhtml/css it didnt work on the ipad.
in case anyone wonders, something similar has to be done with hindi numbers.
All the best,
Conor
