Figure Space (U+2007) character Copy and Paste
The Figure Space (U+2007) is a Unicode whitespace character specifically designed so its width matches that of numeric digits in monospaced fonts. This makes it especially useful when aligning numbers in tables, charts, and lists where visual consistency is vital.
Unlike standard spaces, which can vary with font and layout, the Figure Space gives a fixed and predictable spacing unit that enhances readability in numeric and tabular data. This is why it’s widely used in professional typesetting, publishing, and formatting environments.
