Hi Felix,

this is by purpose. Please have a look at
svx/source/svdraw/svdomeas.cxx. There, the special characters
SDRMEASUREFIELD_ROTA90BLANCS is used at the begin and end of the
standard text string for formatting reasons (as the name says) when the
text is rotated 90 degrees. Those fileds produce a single blank when the
text is perpendicular to the measure object (that is: rotated). See all
places in the file where SDRMEASUREFIELD_ROTA90BLANCS is used.

HTH.
