I would like to add a white space of exactly the width of a given text. I could use \hspace{}
, but then I need the width that given piece of text is going to use in my LaTeX document.
Another idea is to create an invisible box containing the text. Like \mbox{text}
, but invisible. As I am pretty sure that I cannot just tell LaTeX not to print that particular box, I am sure that there is another solution.
Any ideas?
You’re searching for \hphantom
which creates a horizontal phantom box:
\par Here is some text
\par \hphantom{Here is some} more text.
Will result in something like this:
Here is some text
more text
