Values

normal
The spacing is the normal spacing for the current font. Unlike a value of 0, this value allows the user agent to alter the space between characters in order to justify text.
<length>
Indicates inter-character space in addition to the default space between characters. Values may be negative, but there may be implementation-specific limits. User agents may not further increase or decrease the inter-character space in order to justify text.
See <length> values for possible units.

Formal syntax
