Otherwise ... Spacing will be maintained if you used tab sets, justification or other spacing specifications, provided you left plenty of room between vertical columns so the text does not overlap (ascii characters are usually spaced wider than most proportionally-spaced characters). WordPerfect will readjust the soft returns for text in paragraphs. Hope this helps.
