In the task field, select “Add rule” in the following dialogue on the “Coupler” tab. A dialogue will appear.

In the dialogue you have the possibility to define the respective elements of the coupler rule in the area "Left" and "Right".

Enter the exact text that is situated to the left or right of the non-breaking space or select placeholders:
-
[0-9] for any number
-
[a-z] for any letter
-
Couple: “normal width” non-breaking space; example: EUR 251 million.
-
Closely couple: inserts a narrow non-breaking space to reduce the spacing between the terms; example: 100thinsp;%.
-
Suppress spacing: suppressed space, i.e. no spacing between the terms; particularly suita-ble if different rules apply to different languages; example: the spacing required in German between the number and percent symbol should be suppressed in English
-
Force spacing: non-breaking space, even though it was not entered when the text was in-put; example: “[09]” and “%”.
-
Click “OK” to confirm your selection.
