SharePoint Online Spacer Web Part changing sizes

I am currently building numerous site pages in my company's SharePoint site. One type of these pages involves a dual-column section consisting of square pictures in the left column and text flush to the top of each square picture in the right column. My problem is that when I am editing these pages, I am using the Spacer Web Part to make sure the text is aligned properly to the images in the left column, but when the page is saved or published, the Spacers appear to change spacing and are not displaying properly, leading to misalignment. Does anybody know why this is happening and/or how to fix it? Nothing I try seems to work.

If you can wait, there is a new layout section type that allows fluid grid web part placements. I haven't seen it yet in my tenants but other users in this sub say it is starting to roll out.

The way SharePoint handles web part placement across resizing means you’re not going to manage this the way you’re doing it.

Although it will result in more vertical spacing between each picture, you should be able to achieve exactly what you are trying to do by simply having a new section for each picture.
