Because we can't add more than one space or even a tab, it makes layout extremely difficult for technical hubs.
HTML "compresses" multiple white space characters into a single space.
There are a couple of workarounds that might work for your needs:
• Try a Table capsule, or,
• Try a Code capsule, which tells the browser not to alter the formatting.
Unfortunately Robert, we can't use any subscripts, superscripts, symbols etc in tables, so it's not really a solution for entering e.g. mathematical equations. Code capsules add line numbers so that's not an option. Non-break spaces should work, but they get stripped out for some reason.
Thanks for the suggestions anyway!
FYI, when you add a code capsule, there is an option to turn off line numbers. Of course, it doesn't give you the other formatting tools.
The other option, of course, is to insert the formulas as images. That way, you could use the program of your choice to create them, and have complete control over the formatting.

The nice thing about the new Amazon capsule is that it displays the description text in the same size as the rest of the hub. This can be beneficial and may turn into better sales. So I reorganized one of my hubs, moving much of my text from text capsules into the Amazon description fields. This...

Do you have trouble formatting text in the text capsule of your hubs?I don't know if it's just me but this has been an ongoing problem for me since I joined HP. I prefer to type my work out in a word document and then copy-paste but sometimes the format is ruined. Usually, my spacing is...

Wow, what a mess this transition is! My pages look terrible! Back on Squidoo, my pages were all 100%. Here, the highest is ranked 52. OUCH!So back on Squidoo, we were encouraged to write product pages. Here they don't seem to like that.Now I'm trying to fix some of my pages - on Squidoo these were...

HubPages' new policy of spreading out the pictures and rearranging hubs has made an absolute mess of so many of my pieces. It will take a lot of editing and re-writing and formatting for a large number of my articles because they are in need of photos that are placed NEXT to the text, not on...
