[xep-support] Non-breaking spaces in transform

Hello,

I'm having difficulty with specifying non-breaking spaces in my FO.

I've tried specifying   in the content, but I keep getting a
collapsed result. For the sample using the EN and EM space, the PDF
output looks the same (meaning the size of the space isn't actually
different for the EN and EM as it should be). Am I missing something
basic?

Thanks in advance,
Al
