I don't think the problem is with the HTML or RTF -- the problem is that 
your original data does not contain "real" spaces, but rather contains 
"hard spaces". These are considered normal characters, different than a 
space, and become part of the "word" as Rev sees it.

To fix it, replace all option-space characters with regular spaces 
before parsing the script:

  replace numToChar(202) with space in fld "data"

On a Mac, you can also generate this character by just typing 
option-space rather than using the numtochar business in the script.
