      Hello

      Is there a way of selecting the first space (the space after the first word) via GREP and changing it to a Em space or En space ETC.

      P.S. i am working with hebrew lettering and i am making a dropword effect and i want that the first space should be bigger theb the rest.

      thanks

      Sorry I see you are working in Hebrew, my GREP will only work with Roman character set. It don’t have any Hebrew text so I can test this.
      This will find all non space characters then the first space character. Try it and let me know if it works.
      Try
      Find
      (^\S+)()
      Replace
      $1~m
