Frodo Looijaard updated PDFBOX-1807:
------------------------------------
    Attachment: pdfbox-2.0.0-RC3-tabs_spaces.diff

Attached a patch agains 2.0.0-RC3 that will resolve this issue, as well as handle tabs (they are expanded to spaces on the assumption a non-proportional font is used). 
The patch will also apply to 1.8.11, but the file to patch lives in a different subdirectory.

> When using the TextToPDF utility on a text file that has spaces in the front for formatting purposes, the leading spaces on the line are being stripped causing the report to no longer looks like it did in the PDF.  
> Was this the intended result?  Is there a way to turn off the stripping of the spaces?  If not, can it be added?
