MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - PDF -> AZW conversion, weird character spacing

I'm sure this has been asked, probably a million times, but for the life of me I could not find it, maybe I'm using the wrong search terms.

Any how, I've tried converting PDF with calibre, and with amazon's service, and in both scenarios, I get weird space in a lot of the text (with 2 books now), something like:

T h i s is a n ex a m p le.

Then when I try to have the kindle do text-to-speech it reads the letters to me rather then the words.

I'm hoping there are some things I can try to rectify this?
