HTML browsers always trim spaces. Unless you send them codes to prevent that.

However you may be able to use the HTML non-breakable space entity - nbsp; Try using "nbsp;"+$F{fieldxyz} and see what happens. Note the semi-colon ';' is required.

 

I only use PDF, so have not used HTML with jasper much.
