{{SVGRef}}
The **`word-spacing`** attribute specifies spacing behavior between words.
If a {{cssxref("length")}} is provided without a unit identifier (e.g. an unqualified number such as 128), the browser processes the \<length> as a width value in the current user coordinate system.
If a \<length> is provided with one of the unit identifiers (e.g. .25em or 1%), then the browser converts the \<length> into a corresponding value in the current user coordinate system.
> [!NOTE]
> As a presentation attribute, `word-spacing` can be used as a CSS property. See the CSS {{cssxref("word-spacing")}} property for more information.
## Elements
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:
- {{SVGElement("text")}}
- {{SVGElement("textPath")}}
- {{SVGElement("tref")}}
- {{SVGElement("tspan")}}
## Usage notes
<table class="properties">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th scope="row">Value</th>
<td><code>normal</code> | {{cssxref("length")}}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th scope="row">Animatable</th>
<td>Yes</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th scope="row">Default values</th>
<td><code>normal</code></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
For a description of the values, please refer to the [CSS `letter-spacing`](/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/letter-spacing#values) property.
## Examples
This example includes two {{SVGElement("text")}} elements with different `word-spacing` values.
```css hidden
html,
body,
svg {
height: 100%;
}
```
```html
<svg viewBox="0 0 250 50" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<text y="20" word-spacing="4">Bigger spacing between words</text>
<text x="0" y="40" word-spacing="-0.5">Smaller spacing between words</text>
</svg>
```
