When converting a PDF document, some words have spaces randomly inserted in them. Every instance of a word is not affected, and it does not look like ligatures (e.g. one example is "t he"). This occurs with every way I can find to convert the document, EXCEPT sending it to Amazon for conversion, where it is converted correctly. This seems to indicate that I am missing something about the PDF - I would welcome suggestions.
