Tab stops are always by convention and rarely contained in a data file.
At least that's my experience with generations of text editors and
frequent anger due to seeing weird alignment after switching editors.

What I'm doing is converting old text documents into XML.
So why not run a text-based utility on them to convert tabs into
spaces, before you do anything else?
Isn't the line length, tab-stop setting etc missing from the XML?
Even with text pre-processing I'm not sure how this can be done?
guesswork?
