How to preserve spacing in AD fields
Problem:
You have an Active Directory field with some additional spacing in it, for example field Title: IT Administrator that contains two spaces between "IT" and "Administrator". But when you send an e-mail, the placeholder Title is filled with just "IT Administrator", i.e. the additional space gets removed.
Solution:
HTML-rendering engines such as those in web browsers or email clients e.g. Outlook, by default treat this kind of spacing as a mistake and remove them. To force the spacing you would have to use HTML elements such as: or <BR /> . This is, however, not possible for AD fields.
In this case you have to use the <PRE> tags around the AD placeholders in your signatures. Such a trick will preserve any user created spacing or line breaks. An example of the HTML code would look like this:
<PRE style="Font-Family: Arial; Font-Size: 10pt">
{Title}
</PRE>
