How about using En Spaces that can be inserted via the InsertSymbol dialog
and selecting the Special Characters tab.

If you insert one, and then select it and use Ctrl+C to copy it to the
clipboard, then use EditReplace and put an ordinary space (spacebar) into
the Find what control and then move to the Replace with control and press
Ctrl+V, the En Space will be pasted into that control and when you use
Replace All, all of the spaces will be replaced with En Spaces.

How do I increase the space between words but keep it less than 2
spaces?

TIA
