While the indentations are tabulated, "!" expands to:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
  
</body>
</html>

but as soon as you check the box "replace tabs with spaces" in the settings, the same abbreviation unfolds already in:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>

</body>
</html>

that is, without indentation.
Question: can this be fixed so that the indentation is and is double spaces?

I found the solution myself:
in Notepad++\plugins\EmmetNPP\editor.js I
replaced

editorProxy._syntax = syntax;
  var indentation = '\t'; 
   if (!e.getUseTabs()) {
    indentation = r('utils').repeatString(' ', +e.getIndent());
  }

on the

editorProxy._syntax = syntax;
  var indentation = '  '; // \t
/*   if (!e.getUseTabs()) {
    indentation = r('utils').repeatString(' ', +e.getIndent());
  } */

that is, replaced "\t" with a double space and commented out the condition.
(I did not find where to influence this condition)
