The Em Space (U+2003) is a typographical character representing a space that is equal in width to the point size of the type being used. It is used in typesetting to create proportional spacing within text, often for alignment or aesthetic purposes. This non-breaking space ensures consistency in layout, preventing unintended word wrapping or spacing errors in digital and print media.
