Actually, the little section for inserting a footer doesn't have the text controls, like the other text windows. But I at least figured out how to get it to accept additional spaces... You can enter a blank character as a space, by combination alt+255 on the num pad, or for OSX option+space. That seems to make the server hold the extra spaces intact. But it takes some experimenting to get it right. I guess it could still be skewed on the receiver's end though by their font.
