hi,

i would like to use tab space inside of a paragraph in a

<p:document>...</p:document>.

I tried to emulate it with spacingAfter
<p:paragraph spacingAfter=" ">...

but i receive only an exception

java.lang.NumberFormatException: empty String

Merci for any suggestions

Attributes 'spacingBefore' and 'spacingAfter' can be used to create vertical spacing.

spacingBefore is like CSS:margin-top
spacingAfter is like CSS:margin-bottom

I look for a way to get horizontal spacing like a regular TAB in Eclipse or Word.

At the moment the only usable solution is to use multiple spaces.
