Well, it is hard to say based on a single word, but those "extra spaces" might easily turn out to be "soft hyphen" characters. Soft hyphens are indication to the reading/printing software where it is acceptable to break a word if it is at the end of line. Most likely cut&paste "filtered" out those codes and gave you spaces.
