Does anyone know of a way to preserve whitespace when converting docx to
html using Pandoc? When I have multiple spaces in my docx file (for
formatting purposes), the outputted html replaces consecutive whitespaces
with a single whitespace. Thanks!

There's no way to do it, sorry. we try to capture document
structure, and inevitably little stylistic details get lost.

Also worth remembering is that HTML doesn't consider whitespace as
significant - it collapses all whitespace. So even if it was preserved,
it wouldn't be persevered in the browser.
