[xep-support] Re: Encoding spaces at line ends and between words

Hi,

I opened the PDF-file with
a) SumatraPDFViewer
b) PDF-XChange-Viewer
c) Acrobat Reader
copied the text in into clipboard and pasted the text into a new notepad++ file

Here are the results:

a) SumatraPDFViewer:

Gender, in contrast, is a social, not a biological characteristic. Gender consists of what-
ever behaviors and attitudes a group considers proper for its males and females. Conse-
quently, gender varies from one society to another. Whereas sex refers to male or female,
gender refers to masculinity or femininity. In short, you inherit your sex, but you learn
your gender as you are socialized into the behaviors and attitudes your culture asserts are
appropriate for your sex.

b) PDF-XChange-Viewer:

Gender, in contrast, is a social, not a biological characteristic. Gender consists of what-
ever behaviors and attitudes a group considers proper for its males and females. Conse-
quently, gender varies from one society to another. Whereas sex refers to male or female,
gender refers to masculinity or femininity. In short, you inherit your sex, but you learn
your gender as you are socialized into the behaviors and attitudes your culture asserts are
appropriate for your sex.

c) Acrobat Reader:

Gender, in contrast, is a social, not a biological characteristic. Gender consists of whatever
behaviors and attitudes a group considers proper for its males and females. Consequently,
gender varies from one society to another. Whereas sex refers to male or female,
gender refers to masculinity or femininity. In short, you inherit your sex, but you learn
your gender as you are socialized into the behaviors and attitudes your culture asserts are
appropriate for your sex.

In all cases I cannot see any problems relating to spaces.

As an addition to my previous post: Perhaps this mostly is not a XEP/PDF problem but a problem of the respective PDF-viewer?
