add a 'space' to a Bible Module

Question

I asked about adding spaces to modules earlier (https://support.bible/12728/add-a-space-between-heading-and-reference-in-module), but I'm now facing a different situation where the solution provided there doesn't work...

Given: \ref PSA 122:1-2 \bd R\bd*

how do I get an extra space (or two or three) between the final punctuation of the \ref (inherited from the text in Paratext) and the 'R'?

I've tried putting an extra space (indicated by _ in what follows) between the final digit and \bd (\rem PSA 122:1-2 _\bd R\bd*), between \bd and R (\rem PSA 122:1-2 \bd _R\bd*), adding things like U+2003 (Em Space) in those positions, and more. Nothing I've tried yet has worked... Right now I'm toying with the idea of using the least obtrusive 'character' I can find (so far U+A78F 'Sinological dot'), but a real space would be preferred.

Is there a way to do this? Thanks for any help!

EDIT: I kept mucking around and just found that if I add a 'blank' \it \it*, it adds a space to the PrintDraft output! I'm still interested in other solutions, but I think this will work for now. :-)

我在 PT9.5 中成功实现了这一点，前提是开启了空白字符（警告 - 如果您开启空白字符，项目中的每个人都必须更新到 9.5）。

我在 R 之前添加了一个 zwj，然后在其后添加了一个长空格。我是通过将光标放在 R 之前，输入 200D（Alt+X），然后输入 2003（Alt+X）来实现的。结果看起来像这样：

这会在预览中添加空格。

谢谢 Phil。不过我应该提到，我使用的是 Linux，所以我目前主要还在使用 PT8 / 9.0……我在 PT8 的模块中尝试了 200D（Alt-X）和 2003（Alt-X），我认为“零宽连接符”（zero width joiner）有助于让长空格保留下来（之前它总是被删除……），但不知为何，前面带有 zwj + 长空格的“R”被挤到了上一行的末尾！？太奇怪了。

我仍然想知道是否有在早期版本中也能起作用的方法？
