I created a PDF file that has multiple spaces between characters. It is that way in the PDF. But when rendered by Acrobat, it’s a single space between each word. This is causing a problem with a barcode font.

PDF:

0 0 0 rg
(Before  after  two  spaces.)Tj

Any ideas why? (the PDF is at http://simba.windward.net/temp/PdfSpacing.pdf)

    As I see, there are TWO spaces exactly.

    enter image description here

    This is one space for your case (font, size, etc.)

    enter image description here

    The space glyph is not the ‘W’ letter size. It depends of designer point of view. If it absolutely necessary for you to SET the width of space as some real BIG value, you can do it in the font descriptor section as width of space character exactly.

    Thank You.
